I reckon the folk in those parts of town could use some bronze toilets. If I lived there I wouldn't even be real picky about whether they took the nameplates off during the conversion process.
There's a Jim Crow statue of Jefferson Davis in the fucking Rotunda of the fucking Kentucky State Capitol. It needs to be crushed into smithereens and swept into the sewer, and replaced with a statue of the governor who nearly defeated Kentucky poverty by embracing Obamacare: Steve Beshear.
How about the Kentucky Governor Breckinridge who supported keeping the state in the Union in 1861? As opposed to the Kentucky Senator Breckinridge who became a Confederate General and Secretary of War.
It's a horrific statue....Lucy looks like she's seen the Swamp Monster emerge. It was in her home town. They had to send it back to the sculptor and get a better one.
I looked it up. It was truly horrible, not even a woman. ps I still marvel at the fact I can look up any old unclassifiable thing, such as 'Lucy bad statue' and get a picture of it and the entire story. It's just a different world. Very satisfying too.
And the scuptor first said 'I know, I'll do it over.' Then he said, 'you have to pay me $100,000 tho.' Or some amount like that. And that's when said goodbye to him. The new one's just right.
Some exceptions:1. The Eastern Front in WW2. All the accounts are from the German side. The Russian accounts got censored or tied into ribbons by their own propaganda.2. The Allied defense of Southeast Asia in 1941-1942. There are very few Japanese accounts of the campaign: Masanobu Tsuji's book is contemptuous of the British.3. The Russo-Finland War: all the accounts are Finnish.4. The Spanish Civil War: the Republicans wrote all the books and had all the good songs.5. Vietnam: They're all American books, in three categories: 1:what I went through fighting there 2. what the US went through fighting there 3. Why the US lost (which is usually either the politicians betrayed the men in the field or Jane Fonda betrayed the PoWs).
Nobody has an explanation.
Be that as it may (I think you're highly correct), would statues of Bin Laden in public have prevented this? (Article author says "no". :) )

Ah! Didn't mean to be redundant.

It's like that statue of Lucille Ball that had to get "Returned to Sculptor."
I don't know about that one.

Isn't it a terrifying thing? She looks like she's just met the Werewolf or something.

Yes, I think the sculptor did ask for more money. That probably put an end to his/her/its career.

And Margaret Mitchell and D.W. Griffith.
Isn't he a lovable, furry old Muppet?
