I have several relatives from the New England area that are snowbirds. They shut off the main water valve at the water meter or cut power if they have water wells. If leaving Florida, they leave the AC on a high temp setting around 76* to prevent mildew and mustiness. Spare key to a trusted neighbor/ friend for weekly checkups and a security system with inexpensive internet cameras. Some buy a used car and leave it here so they can fly instead of driving.

My apology that I wasn't able to address your question sooner. Looks like CAT's post was basically how I would have responded.

1) the mural in question is on a wall of a private property.
2) the mural can't be moved in any way without destruction of same.
3) if the mural had been painted on the wall of the courthouse, then, if people
strongly objected to it, then the authorities could order it's destruction.
4) the statue of Lee was in a PUBLIC park and it was movable.
5) the mural is controversial fot what it depicts, but privately owned.
6) the statue honors a traitor to the United States who fought to preserve the
enslavement of African Americans and, these African American citizens
have the right to be upset that a public park hosts a hated person like Lee.
7) the statue could be moved to a more suitable location, like a private venue.
Think " The Daughters of the Confederacy", and no one could object.
8 )you say Southern men are more tolerant than liberals. If so, why aren't any
streets named after Martin Luther King in any white neighborhood,
especially in the South?

The nudity reflects the story of David as stated in the Bible, I Samuel 17:38–39: "And Saul armed David with his armour, and he put an helmet of brass upon his head; also he armed him with a coat of mail. And David girded his sword upon his armour, and he assayed to go; for he had not proved it. And David said unto Saul, I cannot go with these; for I have not proved them. And David put them off him."[25]

The small size of the genitals, though, is in line with his other works and with Renaissance conventions in general, perhaps referencing the ancient Greek ideal of pre-pubescent male nudity.

Commentators have noted the presence of foreskin on David's penis, which is at odds with the Judaic practice of circumcision, but is consistent with the conventions of Renaissance art.

Phart, the statue has political overtones too. Do some research.

If the military is becoming too soft, replace the sergeants.
