Is This Now The Largest Confederate Monument?

 

Now that the other former capital of the confederacy has taken down it's huge statue of Robert E. Lee, two questions:

 

 

1) Does Montgomery win the big rebel statue title with the 88 foot tall monument next to the capitol building?

and

2) should the tourism folks grab hold of that fact for promotions? "Come on down to Montgomery Alabama to see the biggest Confederate Monument!"

     Maybe Governor Kay Ivey can be the on-camera talent, after all her confederate monument protection law will help make sure this state is the place for tourists to see what rebellion does.

 

   

 

  And the Alabama monument was dedicated by Jefferson Davis himself, just a few dozen feet away from the spot where he swore to defend the breakaway states.
