So the Democratic Birmingham Mayor asked the protestors to "give him 24 hours"...after they tried to pull down the confederate monument in Linn Park in downtown. The crowd more or less went along.
Question: The city wanted to take the monument down last year. The only reason the statue is still standing is Republican Governor Kay Ivey, who ran for election with an ad boasting about her support for the law protecting those monuments. She fought the city and won an order blocking Birmingham from doing so.
With all that has happened in the past week, will she STILL take that stand and block the city from removing the monument?
