Thinking like the Islamic Socialists now, blowing up Buddhas and whatnot.I see none of these radical groups, national and international socialists alike, going to Seattle to tear this statue down. |

As somebody who was born and raised, and lived his entire life in this city, I am against the destruction of historic artifacts and statues, even if they are ones I don't necessarily agree with. |

I watched the video of the statue being pulled down, and it looked awfully like the video of the statue of Saddam Hussein being pulled down that was shown so much during the Iraq War. The U.S. Government started the meme of pulling down a statue like that. |

I think we should erect statues and monuments to Benedict Arnold. I mean lets not erase history. After all he fought valiantly in Ticonderoga and the Battle of Quebec for the Colonies before he went to the other side. |

If we do that, we'll have to erase Obama's name from schools and stuff for him giving Iran the bomb. How far will we go? |

I also mentioned statues, which they are. I'm just glad I get up in the morning or the afternoon or whenever the hell I get up, and I'm not offended at everything! There's a good computer meme out with Jackie Gleason on the beach in Miami with his arms spread saying okay world, what are we offended at today? |
