Well, a local college has decided to remove bust of a founding father. The reason? He was slave owner, just like Jefferson and Washington.

What I want to know is why the they are removing the bust, yet keeping the school named after him.

Is it really too far fetched to think that maybe statues of Jefferson and Washington might also have to go?
