There appears to be another 700 lb. object in that photo. Or two.
-
Its hard to see the bronze counterfeit 20 in George's left hand.
-
People on twitter have been making wisecracks because there seems to be a bulge in George's trousers. It's for the ladies, dontcha know.

Probably just a bag of pills.

True.
-
What future political movement will decide to tear that statue down because it's inconsistent with the beliefs of the mob in that day?
-
Needs sledgehammers.

Don't try to tell me the LEFTS.....are NOT INSANE! lol.
-
..... Feeling like a dead duck
Spitting out pieces of his broken luck...

Do they do this absurd crap just to trigger us? :pondering:
-
Young black child to parent:
"mommy, who is George Floyd and why is there a statue of him over there?"
mother: "dear child, Floyd was a thug who spent five years in a federal penitentiary for armed robbery where he stuck a gun into a pregnant woman's stomach. He fathered five children whom he rarely saw. He was also a drug addict and committed a number of other serious and petty crimes before he died in police custody from a fatal drug overdose and a bad heart.
Does that satisfy your morbid curiosity?"
-
So the statue weighs almost as much as that woman in the red dress?
Oh, that was mean.
At least the people who sculpted the MLK statue in DC had the decency to use WHITE stone...that way it minimized the resemblance to The Lawgiver in Beneath The Planet Of The Apes.

@mystery-ak
If you had tried to tell someone that stuff like this would be happening in America even ten years ago,they would have thought you were insane.
Notice George is sitting on his ass?
He's probably waiting for his SS disability check to come in.
-
I remember a few years ago when theives were stealing air conditioners and wires to sell as scrap.
Is George the High Giant bolted down?
-
Did the artwork come with a commode?
700 pounds is quite a load.
-
Do they do this absurd crap just to trigger us? :pondering:
To clarify, yes.
-
Made of bronze?
Why wasn't it made of marble?
He was always stoned....

@Wingnut
Excellent point!
Only in 21st Century 'murika can you be a parasite,a petty crook,and a drug addict who never supported his children,and become a national hero because you stroked out while high and resisting arrest.

Robert E. Lee, beloved general, masterful tactician, godly man.... Or the Fentanyl OD'ed thug criminal George Floyd.
Guess whose statues are being torn down? Our modern society sucks.

MLK was not much better. He has a statue.

I've never seen a 700 pound sack of shit before and feel no need to see one now.
-
Actually, I'd rather not watch. :shrug:
