Calls for removal of Confederate faces off Stone Mountain

8. It's an amazing geological feature.

Sadly, it was defaced with that bas relief sculpture. There's no way to remove it that wouldn't cause even more damage.

As my late grandmother said, once, of carvings made on a sandstone bluff in Arizona, "Fool's names and fool's faces always appear in public places."

They defaced a natural phenomenon with images of people who fought a war to keep slavery alive. How sad a statement that is. It should be removed, but the beauty of that massive and unique geological feature has been marred forever.
