Seriously frick that guy.....he's so clearly doing this for the national press, paint your citizens as a bunch of white supremacist bumpkins, sure if it furthers your own career. Piece of shite.

It's too dangerous and just about impossible for them to do it at night.

So will they be wearing Kevlar?

And if it was about their safety they wouldn't be heading down the street to Gallier Hall for a party.

They're gonna be out there a while. Statue not supposed to come down until 4am

ETA - is this accurate? It was posted 30 minutes ago by Nola.com LINK

But the city, in a press release, said the removal would begin at 9 am Friday. The notice said the process is expecting to last at least until 5 p.m.

Police will close streets around Lee Circle, including a portion of St. Charles Avenue, beginning at 4 a.m. Friday. Road closures will be set at these intersections:

Circle Bar is pouring 24/7 so 4 AM crowd should be all hot and bothered on both sides.

Will join the long list of water features thus city has, with tiny springs in the streets that run 24/7 for years.

Also... a public bid will be started to try to find the next owners of the statues*

* with orders saying they can't be shown on public property in NOLA and must have an inscription on why they were erected and then why the city council "voted" to remove them in 2015

** Beauregard will not be put out to bid as of right now due to the legal issues over ownership with City Park
