We haven't had a good statue thread in a while.

quote:

A statue commemorating Charles Didier Dreux, who was the first Confederate field officer killed in the Civil War, had been vandalized Tuesday in New Orleans.

The monument, a bust of Dreux on a pedestal at South Jefferson Davis Parkway and Canal Street, had a white cloth covering the figure's head with red X's over the eyes. Expletives were written on the pedestal in red paint.



LINK to NOLA.com - slightly less shitty website than Advocate.com but not by much

I think someone had already gotten his nose during Mitch's initial tantrum ordeal.

Nothing more civilized than murdering an inanimate object to voice your frustration.

I'm happy to see this given how much positive change the removal of statues last year has brought to the City of New Orleans.

Dreux was sacked in the off-season.

And you’re no better than these idiots.

People on either side who act like the other is the enemy are the problem.

It's almost, if not already to the point where these vandals have to google "remaining nola statues" in order to figure out which ones they are offended by.

Nah fam

Liberals are scum of the earth.

Conservatives don’t destroy shite and try to ruin lives, that’s all liberals.

Conservatives merely exist and put up with liberals while trying to fix the hellhole they create

I fricking hate liberals and you’ll never see me try to ruin lives or destroy property or shut down a liberal speaker

TBH this used to infuriate me a year or two ago, but now it's just commonplace in NOLA.

These monuments don't deserve NOLA...put them in a public space where they will be revered and not defaced all of the time.

Clearly that frustration led to five people being shot last night on St. Claude Ave.

Clearly. Time to drop another 2 million to remove some more statues.
