Apropos the President of the United States and his threat of 10 years' imprisonment for "so much as touching" a statue …

Let us reflect that this was once a grand American pastime. How far the mighty nation has fallen.

🎶 We went strolling through the park
🎶 Goosing statues in the dark
🎶 If Sherman's horse can take it,
why can't you?

🎶 Buffalo Bill next time I pass
🎶 I'll stick a finger in his eye
🎶 If Buffalo Bill can take it,
why can't you?

@fgbjr@indieweb.social He's assuming that the current Congress will vote to erect a statue of him, and he's afraid of what will happen to it once there's again a functioning democracy in this country. There's plenty of precedent around the world for what has happened to dictators' statues, and for that matter in this country for Confederate monuments.
