A special thank you to CHRIS CARUSO for expressing his feelings on-the-removal of the COLUMBUS STATUE AT SEASIDE PARK here in our city..I agree with MR.CARUSO for I too am a ITALIAN and very proud of my heritage.TO remove this statue has discriminated against the ITALIANS in our community.IT seems our city leaders don't care if they push us aside to satisfy some radical group who no doubt has no relationship to COLUMBUS at all but our government at times has no back bone and follows the orders of those that make demands.IT is unjust and unfair that us ITALIANS have to now relinquish the statue.Maybe one day people will realize ITALIANS are people who matter.
