I'm not really wanting to get into the business of tearing down statues and artwork. There is no telling where that ends. Lots of people are offended by art in many, may different ways.

Im not going to go down the path of the Taliban.

Best way to combat art you find offensive is to create new art....not tear down and destroy what you don't like.
