The statue has been subject to several incidents since its installation, including a man humping it and other men donning her in Trump merchandise.

5. Worried over disrespect to the artist of the bull statue.

That artist deserves to be disrespected. He's a hack. it's a nice piece from a purely technical aspect. Celebrating the fearlessness of wall street? Please spare me. I just got done with the stomach flu.
The little girl was a beautiful addition.

11. he cant have had a permit for that. i doubt it will stand for long, but

actually, the firm that commissioned 'fearless girl' does, in fact, have to do w feminism. it targets it's investments in firms w female high ups. and does quite well, thank you very much.

12. Yeah, well I can top that.

I'm going to make a sculpture of a bunch of piss ants to place under the dog to invade it's space. Then you get a whole fucking ecosystem going.
And with ants you get the whole damn Dali thing going too.

No, not the ugly pissing mut, but Fearless Girl.
