Confederate statues are as much a part of American history, and what some would call culture, as Martin Luther King statues, whether people love them or hate them. Removal of one kind of statue and not the other isn't multiculturalism, it's one group claiming the park the statue sat on as their own, and it will never unify everybody.
As long as a country says one kind of history is okay as long as everybody likes it, but the other is not, the country will remain divided, since one group, or culture, as some would call it, doesn't really respect the other. That isn't multiculturalism, though America has always been a melting pot, and is made of many different groups of the same (human) race. If people have to remove, forget, or pretend something never existed (including Confederate statues) to validate themselves, they don't really respect it, they only respect their own group (or most likely self).

A Confederate statue is no more a threat to public safety than a statue of a Civil Rights leader. The statue was never the threat, it's the ppl eople that gather around the statue, no matter their shade of skin, that are a threat to each other. The statues are fine the way they are, they were after all, built by humans.
It's not everybody's problem when someone is offended by a Confederate statue, just like it's not everybody's problem when someone is offended by a statue of a Civil Rights leader. Both kinds of statues should be left alone, if anything people are more of a threat to the statues than the statues are to people.

Something you won't find in Lubbock, Texas, Phoenix, Arizona, most of California, Las Vegas, Dallas, Texas or even Winston Salem, NC. You won't find them because there are no sternwheelers to be found there. A sternwheeler is not unique enough for you though.
Nowadays people have to have slot machines and Texas hold em on board when they get on a sternwheeler, otherwise they will get bored in 15 minutes.

People you would think have nothing left. What somebody has doesn't have to be expensive or valuable financially to be held sacred by a person or group you're trying to take something from, even if most things taken tend to be out of financial interest rather than for any other reason. It is the belief of some that if you take that which someone or a group of people holds most dear, you've taken everything, you've taken what they're made of. It's like walking up behind someone and stabbing them in the heart, or between the ribs.
He/she would live off the land of the dispossessed, make what was theirs his/hers, try to make their lives his/hers, might even try to become him/her/them. The desperate ones who tried to dispossess the others had always been imitating somebody else, they knew how to imitate for a living, they were good at it.

A marionette sounds more like a female puppet, you would think a male puppet would be called a marion.
