Desecrating the grave of a Jewish man is one point of view I suppose. Didn't have you down as an Anti-Semite.
It was a joke max. I do object to people who vandalise, steal i absolutely hate those types of behaviour.
What's funny about desecrating the grave of a Jewish man? I'm not laughing. You need to get a grip this is all going TTM.
Do you believe desecrating the grave of a Jewish man, is worse that desicrating the grave of a non Jewish man Max?
If so, why?

The question is imbecillic but I will answer it anyway.

No. I'm against the desecration of all graves and it doesn't really matter what I believe one way or the other.

Then why did you include the word Jewish? That's anti Semitic. You thought your point would carry more weight of you said Jewish man instead of man.
That's anti Semitism all day long .

Hmm - let me think.

Oh I know. Was it because Thor was talking about smashing up the Karl Marx statue, perhaps forgetting that it is actually placed on his grave and that Karl was Jewish?

Its a statue by a bad man, where as Colston was of a bad man. Its wrong way to go about things and find it bizarre they haven't been stopped.

This is disgusting.

They should go through the proper channels if they want it removed. State their case and let people have a vote on it, not take matters into their own hands.

I think we should just tear down every statue, irrespective of whether they are considered to be a goody or a bady. It's the only way to be sure. The Taliban had the right idea.

Sorry for going all Sid Bishop, but according to Wiki...

"The statue was moved to the National Football Museum in Manchester in May 2014.[9] On 6 March 2019, the statue was removed from the National Football Museum"

Should just make all statues out of ice. If someone is really good & popular then they can just keep remaking the statue of them each day (less frequently in the winter) - this might also encourage the great and the good to double their efforts to combat global warming.

If they fall out of favour, just leave the puddle to evaporate.

Any one asking for removal of a state should have to pay for safe removal, dont think this is a priority for public money.
They can use kickstarter.

I know spike posted up a really good write up of the last court case however, I bet most people just see the courts decision as a green light to do what you want to statues you don't agree with.

Statues are fair game now, who else owned slaves and has a statue? Are there any graves?
