It’s a very contentious point in the parish/city

I just read Guillory’s extremely long and rambling statement. He says he wants it taken down to protect the statue, but he doesn’t say where he wants it to go or what he wants to put in his place. This won’t go over well the way he’s proposing it.

I’ve always put Mouton in a different category because, although he was a Confederate General, his family founded Lafayette. He’s appropriately located and relevant for more than just lost cause silliness. I’d like to see him stay in place.

Don't they have to win a court case to do this?

Lafayette should have just elected that Independent gender neutral carpet bagger because Josh Guillory has been terrible.


A gender neutral carpet bagger is never the answer anywhere in the south. Take that shite back to New York, Boston, and BFE yankee land. That’s how you get the damn cancer started. Anyways I have no clue if cuckboi is garbage but a yankee is never the answer. Gross.

Glenn Stewart stabbed a bitch with scissors over a billboard. I’d love to see his reaction to trying to deface his statue.

I’m thinking mounted .50 cal in a lavender Brooks Brother polo while his g00k wife wears the rice hat brandishing an AK

No idea. I’m not getting rid of the image even if he did.

But link me if he did. I need to stay abreast of the landowners

I'm not sure. There was one of those sale pending signs out front for a while. Figured he sold it.

I suppose the question begs to be asked. How can he make such a decision when the statue, and the property on which it sits, are privately owned by the Mouton family?

Reading all the "NEWS" you would think it is a done deal.

But Turncoat Josh is asking his legal department to find a way to remove the statue. And asking the council for their supprt.
