The talk around my city was a question posted on Philly News what to do Philadelphians want to see happen to former Mayor Frank Rizzo statue? So i posted a response on the website. Put the statue where his true followers loved him right? So i suggested put it in the Italian American Museum here Philly. Or use it as a movie prop? The french gave us lady liberty why dont we return the favor give them Rizzo....lol. |

Eye, most of us aren't from Philly but if you'd ask me I'd suggest auction that *** in a jiffy, no reason really, just seems like Rizzo is in the way of that stairway. |

PisciesMoon)2, Thank you Ms. PisciesMoon.... you , MightyMoe, & Mikey4YouSweety, been a great help. You're welcome EyeAm Edit...I don't know a lot about this other than what I've read here and the stuff that went on in Charlottesville, but why don't they just do what mightymoe suggested and just vote on it? |

As I said the other day in another thread, in the UK the activists are now saying they want Nelsons column in trafalgar square taken down due to his use of slavery. You can tare down every statue, monument, government building, every road sign and remove every piece of literature but you will never change history. If they want to live like that then go live with fat boy in nk! I agree with you mike, yet there is some process and some one who decides what is 'worthy' of a statue, why not decisions about which statues are no longer 'worthy'? I can't see how a statue can become "unworthy "msharmony? History hasn't changed has it? Maybe these people should be looking closer to home and get that sorted before worrying about a statue! easy, just choose the opposite of whatever made it 'worthy' if there is a statue of a black person erected during the time of slavery,, should it remain there indefinitely? even after a general concensus is reached that hanging black people is not admirable anymore? there are plenty of issues to be dealt with, and enough people to deal with more than one issue,, simultaneously Or maybe all this is being thrown out there to distract you from what else is happening? |

"If we open a quarrel between past and present, we shall find that we have lost the future."
- Winston Churchill Sell the statues. They will be private property and the owners can decide what to do with them; that ends the argument of tax money maintaining the monuments and statues.(with the Caveat not to destroy them) |
