    Default Statues

    I don't believe it.

    Now in Dorset they are going to remove the statue of Baden Powell (Scouts founder)

    What the bloody hell did he do wrong ?

    The way it's going they won't put a statue of me up (when I turn my toe's up.)

    It won't be long before the statue of Christ on top of the Mountain in Rio will be toppled.

    Yesterday in Virginia a protestor was critically injured when the statue of a confederate soldier that he was toppling hit him on the head,
    "instant Karma maybe?" .

    Before people tear down his statue, I’d just like to point out that
    when Admiral Lord Nelson died he was 5ft 4inches tall. He now
    has a statue that is 16ft tall, that’s horatio of 3:1!
