Going to need a lot more than 12 people

yea, the statue is solid bronze. They couldn't even draw a lift plan for 15 tons, let alone execute it

With numbers like that it shouldn't be any problem to rip down a statue



I can only hope that if they succeed, it falls on and crushes every last one of them.

The 39 ft statue of Saddam Hussein in Firdos Square took a M88 tank wrecker to pull it down. No way in hell these jackasses even think about budging it.

IIf you tossed a rope or chain around the neck of the horse, how much force would it take? If the bronze is 15 tons, the majority of it is above and placed beyond the narrow hooves that connect it to the base. Wouldn't some of the weight do the work for the protestors? Could a hundred do some damage?

My ancestors fought for the union, I'm originally from Ohio, and I find this shite absurd. It's history. It's not going away.

Anybody down to rally a group of southerners to counter this protest? Figure about 400 should be enough to send a clear message.
