"The governor will direct the statue to be moved off its massive pedestal and put into storage while his administration seeks input on a new location, according to the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the official was not authorized to speak before the governor’s announcement."

1. Lawsuits - SCV and UDC money will come pouring in

This is THE last stand for the Lost Cause

2. I can think of a good location

I’m sure that there is a smelter somewhere that could accommodate the statue.

3. I'm sure many will say Robert E Lee is a son of Virginia. However there already is a monument to him

Arlington National Cemetery, look it up.

4. Rip that SOB down.

Put up a statue of Ulysses S Grant.
