There have been a lot of points made here about why it is harmful and none has gotten fair consideration that I can see. Not fair consideration? Or fair consideration but not agreement? I feel the same way about my arguments, btw. So far I haven't felt that you have given serious consideration to the option that people who don't like the monument just ignore it. If your concern is what's in the heart of Judge Moore, then taking away the monument isn't going to change that, in fact will probably solidify it by turning him more into a person who feels that religion is under attack by the unbelievers and needs to be even more forcefully defended in his decisions. So in one way, all this is hooplah is counter-productive. If your concern isn't what's in Moore's heart but is what's in the hearts of those who pass by it, well, they can just not pay it no never mind, can't they?
