While they’re at it, let’s replace Jefferson Davis statues with statues of Jonathan Davis from Korn.

Why Korn?
Alex Skolnick and Chuck Billy are much greater national treasures.

GWAR was made for statues. They deserve it, given their 30+ year career in obliterating ears worldwide. GWAR FTW!

I’m just assuming that this monument would have hoses that sprayed nameless gunk on random people as they walked by.

Like the logic here. Maybe we should replace a few of the statues in Glasgow’s with ones from the lads from Alestorm? Know they’re from Fife but a bit of Pirate Metal would go down well.
But not the Duke of Wellington. Him wearing a traffic cone is an iconic image of Scotland.

And over here in Stone Mountain, they need to replace the confederate generals with Outkast…
Yeah. I’d go to that fucking laser show every year on the 4th then, no matter how crowded and how much it cost.

I don’t see the ‘Cuttlefish of Cthulhu’ phallus. It must be the MTV version of the costume.

Taking down a guy who fought for enslaving one group of people, and replacing it with someone who fought to enslave all humanity?
What kind of lesson is this teaching our kids?

It’s only considered a statue of Robert E. Lee because it’s labeled “Robert E. Lee”. Just change the plaque to another name and everybody should be happy, right?
Presumably the likeness isn’t that bad? I know a lot of those confederate statues were cheaply made and rather shabby, but that one seems like it should have had some care put into it.
Had a friend go to a GWAR concert.
Oderus: “Who has drugs for GWAR?”
crowd starts throwing drugs on stage
Friend: “i’ve got some updog”
Oderus: “What is updog…fuck you”

A big rock… dedicated to hip-hop. That would almost be poetic.
