Suppose he’s holding a Koran.

Leave the beauty of Charleston Harbor alone. Who would go there to see a statue of Lad Liberty?

[Jagdgewehr]

It looks too much like the Colossus of Rhodes. I say leave the half nude male statue stuff to Rome and Greece.

The statue is yelling, “Adrian!”.

[catman67]

We already have our male Statue of Liberty, if only more people would pay attention to it!

[chrisser]

Personally, I’d rather have a giant statue of Lee.

Actually, the pessimist in me thinks that, by the time the various victim pimps excert their control, Liberty Lad here is going to be such a perverted morph of special interest demands that most of us would rather a statue of Lard Lad from the Simpsons be placed there.

2,400 Bronze worker jobs saved or created.

Exactly.

I think the US population needs lessons in liberty, not some new marketing schtick.

I don’t think I have ever heard of the National Monument Foundation, but I suspect they recieve taxpayer funds through grants from the National Endowment for the Arts (or Humanities, or whatever). Regardless, if the people who want this statue can’t pay for it themselves then they should go away and keep their hands out of our pockets.

The first statue was a gift from the French Freemasons.
Anything less than a light bearing gift as a compliment is an insult, and dubious at best.

If “he” is holding a koran at least “he” is not gay or transgendered! Or he’d be hlding his severed privates in the other hand

Look at the bright side

[piroque]

catman67,,, I was thinking along the same lines of a minute man ,,,,

[captbarney]

Minute Man. My first thought, exactly

[Louis Foxwell]

Agreed. The statue as proposed is obscene.

[piroque]

kinda parcel to this ,,,

I never thought I would ever see a more stupid idea than the interstate highway from here ( Charleston ) to Detroit until this. That road has been proposed since the 70s and is still under consideration now.

I would like my natural rights and liberties back for starters ...can do without the symbols of freedom made by some do-gooders..
