Hopefully they can melt them down and use the remains for something useful, like a urinal.
Or bullet proof vests for their citizens to protect them from their citizens.
Looks like the only thing 1984 got wrong was the date.

OK, I'm feeling magnanimous today. Maybe we can compromise.

We don't have to remove all the statues and monuments, just tag them accordingly.

btw, glad to see you brought back the Cleetus moniker, it must make you feel proud to know that you have no ability to actually discuss a topic and revert to that and your symbols.....Call me a redneck bud, I have no issue with it and have a great life

From the Baltimore Sun and Washington Examiner.

What really struck out at me was the one quote by the mayor:
It's done," Pugh said Wednesday morning. "They needed to come down. My concern is for the safety and security of our people. We moved as quickly as we could.
I ass/u/me that she is talking about the physical removal of the statues and keeping the people safe from the removal activities :?:

If her reasoning is that the confederate statues are committing assault and murder on the fine citizens of Baltimore then what we have here is an X-File :!:
I'm happy they are going to Indy. The statues will be safer there, out of the nightly BMore crossfire.
Unfortunately for the citizens of BMore, it will mean less places to hide behind during the nightly BMore crossfire.

Tonight, someone's going to get caught in some gunfire, think to himself, "I need to take cover behind that Confederate ahole's statue", and when he gets there, be really sad.

Hard to tell, but you may have missed the joke as badly as I missed the Dave Chappelle one yesterday.

Didn't really think about it, just used Indy b/c it was in the thread - but if it was a joke, no clue what it's about.
