When will the city have similar meetings to decide what to do about the racist and bigot who sits on the City Commission....Cesar de Leon. It's easy to take sides against a rock, but it seems that people are either scared or ignorant of what to do about a real live bigot in our city, and on our city commission. Cesar de Leon is a racist and is making policy for this community....the Jefferson Davis rock is just sitting there....(unfortunately just like most of our citizens...fat, dumb and happy doing nothing). Time to treat Cesar de Leon in the same manner as the "rock".

Auction it off. Hell, I'll buy it for a dollar.

Those who want the stone moved to VETERANS PARK not only failed history but are also inviting vandalism to follow it there.

On the contrary sir I graduated from Georgetown with a degree in Social Studies with a 4.0 class of 2003. I am for the monument staying where it is an also a minority. Please stop with the sterotypes.

What an embarrassment to Georgetown to have an ex student show his writing skills. If you are so proud to have a degree from that university please retake a remedial course in writing and a course in government (freedom of speech)maybe then you can take pride in your so call degree from Georgetown U.

I truly enjoy reading the various comments on this blog. It is almost as good as watching re-runs of 50's and 60's comedy shows. There seems to be little critical thinking, just one line zingers. It is truly fun to read how the various people abuse each other and say truly stupid things. It is the Naco show at it's best.

The gringos call it a roast stupid - To humorously mock or humiliate someone with a well-timed joke, diss or comeback.

It takes critical thinking to come up with a one line zinger.
