In Richmond, Virginia, the state government is removing more statues honoring great men of the Confederacy. This time they have removed statues to Confederate General Thomas “J” Stonewall Jackson, Gov. William “Extra Billy” Smith, and Dr. Hunter Holmes McGuire. The statue of Stonewall Jackson had been there since 1875.

Sen. Adam Ebbin (D-Alexandria), who sponsored a bill to remove all three statues from the State Capitol, said it’s embarrassing to have constituents walk by statues honoring those associated with the Confederacy.
