I think the government should be responsible for private properties because of money issue and the people having no homes, meanwhile. Climate change played a role because it's what made destruction in many parts than others.

This happened because of a touring of a woman being killed in a car and the white nationalist rally. 2 The statues didn't have to been shrouded necessarily in my opinion. It doesn't make sense. 3 What UT did was neither a good or bad decision just that it wasn't necessary. 4 These statues don't mean anything to me so I don't care. 5 I heard it on the news and my mom told me.
