I find the painting of famous Native American hunter pointing a rifle at a man preticuly racist.

Civic art need not be eternal, especially if it is meant to tell a story, as this art is. Time to support new artists and reconsider the impact of the visuals we choose for our public spaces.

We need more pictures of gays, and gay things. Just to make sure that everyone knows they’re are gays.

We must control history, to be able to control the future.

We need to be reminded of the past and the progress made from those events. Proposals of this ilk simply appease those with personal agendas who feel they are more important than history itself. They feel they are more important than than the rest of us when in reality we are aware they are not.

History can be ugly, but removing the reality of it would be much worse! Denying history would translate to a repeat of it.

We should not be destroying history. It is important to see just how far we have come in so many ways. Those murals help demonstrate that.

You cannot erase history....those that do are doomed to repeat it.

Trump has destroyed every thing. Living in a median begging for money for my booze...but still have my phone and EBT card.

Amen, to that Eric. I know exactly how you feel, and what you are saying. A liberal's interpretation of Proverbs 22:9. Your satire is exquisite.

Never had a big budget for holidays or birthdays. We have too much stuff already so we concentrate on time together and a few useful thoughtful gifts, often hand-made.

Obviously, an article regarding Christmas, will not get many views in a blue city like Columbia.

On Christmas, my kids often just ask me for meaningful advice. They are in their fifties, and they have learned enough to know, that they can always learn more. We still give each other the benefits of our skills that we have acquired over the years. These gifts are priceless, and they last forever.

Christmas commemorates the birth of Jesus Christ, believed to be the Son of God. The celebration focuses on the Incarnation, or God becoming human. You don't need money to celebrate that.
