Let me ask you this. After seeing what's happened already with the desecration of statues and whatnot, do you really trust antifa and others to just suddenly say "nah, let's stop here guys, we're done."

Most of the statue removal hasn't been done by antifa, it's been done by freaking City Councils. Elected officials, both in Charlottesville and in Baltimore.
Germany got rid of pretty much all statues related to Hitler and the Nazis. Did they erase them from museums and history books? Quite the opposite: they require students to visit concentration camps to see exactly what mistakes their country made in the past.
Boston Red Sox owner John Henry has wanted the city to change the name of Yawkey Way for a while, and the current political climate might be just the time.
Henry told the Boston Herald that he is "haunted" by the racist legacy of previous owner Tom Yawkey, who led the team from 1933 to 1976. Although Yawkey is in the Baseball Hall of Fame, he also owned the last team in Major League Baseball to integrate -- 12 years after Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier. Even after integrating, Boston was known as an uncomfortable place for players of color to play.
Hall of Fame NFL coach Tony Dungy is spearheading an initiative to move a Confederate statue in Tampa, and he has received the support of the Rays, Buccaneers and Lightning.
Pro sports teams jumping on board as well; they must all be part of the alt-left:

Bob Corker says Trump is not competent. About time more Republicans are catching on. Glad it's a Tennessean.
