New York will erect a statue honoring the legacy of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg in her native Brooklyn, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Saturday.

“Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg selflessly pursued truth and justice in a world of division, giving voice to the voiceless and uplifting those who were pushed aside by forces of hate and indifference,” Cuomo said in a statement.

“As a lawyer, jurist,and professor, she redefined gender equity and civil rights and ensured America lived up to her founding ideals -- she was a monumental figure of equality, and we can all agree that she deserves a monument in her honor," Cuomo said.

The governor said he will appoint a commission "in the coming days" to come up with ideas for the design and location of the memorial.

New York Mayor Bill de Blasio tweeted "I couldn't agree more," after Cuomo's announcement. "Her memory will live on. I promise you that."

Shut up, Prince Andrew, no one cares what you think, and if you use a freaking dime of NYS Taxpayers money you should be impeached. Well, you should be impeached anyway.

“When can it be lit up with graffiti and torn down?”

In about 25 years when our citizenry of color deem Jewish people inherently evil and full of privilege.
