Can someone take them to court before attempting the Robert E. Lee statue and show them this video as evidence that these pencil dicks are completely clueless as to what they are doing? Also, can someone force the city to turn over records of all the permits they received to do this. What a joke that someone greenlighted this shite show.

Lee is going to be a nightmare. Mitch better actually hire professionals to remove that one if he doesn't want to be laughed out of town more than he already will be.

This is why professional crews come up with an engineering/lift plan before ever moving equipment. Not one of these people know what's going on right now

Lee's statue is watching with binoculars and laughing his arse off.

WWL reporter: "for some reason the straps are coming off now"

Well maybe because the damn thing weighs 18,000lbs and hasn't been touched in 101 years and a crew of NOFD amateurs aren't going to budge it.

I wonder if there was ever an actual plan discussed or it was just a "we can figure it out once we tie it up" talk before heading out. It doesn't appear so but can people really be that dumb with moving something so large?

They have scratched the piss out of the statute tonight. Look at all of the white marks on the rear of the horse.

Not this big. Beauregard is massive.

For those that weren't around earlier, the plans for Lee Circle have already been leaked.

Someone needs to sue and have landrieus arse in contempt of court. Throw that sack of shite in with the general population.
