From Statista: October 10 was World Day Against the Death Penalty. The barbaric practice “remains on the books in 88 countries. The biggest executioners in the world in 2021 were China, Iran, Egypt and Saudi Arabia, while the death penalty also continues in the United States, Brazil, India, Vietnam, Singapore, Malaysia, Japan, Indonesia, Nigeria and all of the Arab Gulf states, among others. That being said, the fight to abolish the death penalty has also made strides over the decades. According to data from Amnesty International and the Death Penalty Information Center, only 14 countries had abolished the death penalty in 1972. This number had risen to 16 at the end of 1977, when Amnesty International published the Declaration of Stockholm, stating its goal to abolish the death penalty globally. 25 years on, in 1997, the number of abolitionist countries and territories had risen to 66. As of October 2022, the count of nations which no longer have the death penalty has risen to 110, with Equatorial Guinea being the latest addition to the list as of last month. In 2021, the use of the death penalty was once more on the rise as Covid-related delays ended.”

Throughout the [nineteenth] century men of the sturdy stocks of the north of Europe had made up the main stream of foreign blood which was every year added to the vital working force of the country . . . but now there came multitudes of men of the lowest class from the south of Italy and men of the meaner sort out of Hungary and Poland, men out of the ranks where there was neither skill nor energy nor any initiative of quick intelligence; and they came in numbers which increased from year to year, as if the countries of the south of Europe were disburdening themselves of the more sordid and hapless elements of their population.

–Woodrow Wilson, The History of the American People (1902).

      Local: There’s a big difference between the Statue of Liberty, which welcomed our ancestors, and welcomes current immigrants, to the United States of America, and the statues of soldiers of a past civil war that pit family against itself and its neighbors, and tried to divide the United States of America, and to this day, is in the face of many Americans with the message that they are lessor than some of us of a different color.

      It’s okay to take down the later statues regardless if you are Democrat or Republican. Those Rebel soldiers fought against the United States and fought for slavery. This shouldn’t be a puzzlement to you, unless you support slavery.
