  2. Dan Campbell. This is not civil disobedience, civil disobedience is pacifistic, this is civil vandalism.

  3. Jonathan Xavier. A statue is an expression of who's boss that originated from way before the invention of television, people no longer look to pigeon shit magnets to projects who's boss, now we got images and symbols plastered directly into the cortex via fibre optics to tell us that and you lot are too dumb to see that this is another distraction so that the GOP and the DNC can keep robbing you blind and hack away at your birthright as free human beings in a free state.

  5. Zorro in Hell. The Berlin Wall was built by an autocratic government to curtail movement, in an autocratic system people have two options, conform or rebel, they have no influence on the government by using the ballot to make their voice heard.

  7. Chris Hakala. Peaceful protest without vandalism or violence are more efficient and they do not undermine the rule of law, they in fact sustain the rule of law by demonstrating for all to see when laws are unjust.

  11. Eric Cartman. Obviously the Vatican has to go too, all that Spanish bullion that went into it was stolen from Aztecs and Incas...

  12. Trianabfine. That would be extremely reckless when both sides in such a conflict would have access to thermonuclear weaponry in large quantities.

  13. It does nothing except undermine the rule of law.

  15. RAZ0RGAM1NG. 40 years of seeing the idiocy on repeat and you figure it out.

  16. Jonathan Xavier. And thousand of years ago they were daily reminders to those pesky Celts who was boss, so how is time relevant if the people who erected them are all dead?

  17. Kona Blue. Even the symbols that are expressed are in obsolete form, mass media is far more efficient than silly statues...

  18. Jiggaboo Jones. I have and I see that the public fail to take full advantage of them. Besides, the books and museums will be next. They should have voted in a legislature to overturn the law making the removal of said monuments illegal. Instead they chose the undemocratic option.
