Yeah go ahead. Put it with a plaque that says what will be his famous quote "I think it's worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year".

They want to add a gender neutral bathroom? I thought they hated those.

Worst administration ever.

I mean sure but we knew that back in January of 2017

New public toilet! Sweet

They just so desperately want to be important and yet their desperation is making the times very important but their actions completely unworthy of being praised.

So stupid.

Only if it includes a water feature at neck-level with some red lighting to re-create his finest moment.

Fuckin go for it. It'll get trashed the following day and every day following it.

The National Guard will finally have something to do in DC

I am assuming they put an excerpt from "I have a dream" for MLK. I wonder what they'll put for CK? The empathy one, the sacrifices must be made for guns one or his actual final words about "gang violence"?

A statue to pedo-protector Charlie Kirk, friend to pedos the world over, and beloved by all pedos?

DC really could use more public places to piss.

Would it not be better to have monuments to ideals instead of people, who can be flawed, idolized? ...asking for a friend

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 8 points 19 hours ago

We have those too. Justice with her blindfold, scales, and sword as well as lady liberty with her woke poem claiming we want huddled masses yearning to be free. Hell, even our obsession with our founding documents fits in that category
