Controversial MLK Memorial inscription to be removed

[crazy canuck]

I wonder what kind of crap quotes they'll put on my memorial.

"All your base are belong to us!" If you are lucky.

I'm guessing something with more "moo" and "baa" in it.

"Brain, lover of all creatures great and small"

It is a really ugly memorial.  It looks like some of the old communist stuff.  Why does MLK have to look some damn angry in it?

Because the negro community frowns upon all shenanigans, duh.

Of course many African Americans were angry that there was a Chinese artist for the memorial.

They ought to tear it down and try again.  It's a fucking abomination.  It looks like a sneering, authoritarian man coming out of a formless mass.  It's the sort of thing you would make for a communist tyrant.  In fact, it looks like a lot of old Soviet war memorials.

I completely agree that it is dreadful. Who knew the Stone of Hope would look so much like despair.

They should have made the MLK memorial like the original Robo-Jesus that got burned up in Ohio.  Image a 200 foot tall black man emerging from the Reflecting Pool.

On fire.

If they were to replace it with an accurate MLK quote it would cost way more than that $700,000 or whatever, given the royalties the King family would probably demand

I'll go ahead and bring up Susan Rice.

With 'The Wickerman' by Iron Maiden blaring.

I'm thinking more of a version of "Iron Man".

Stone MLK comes back from the grave, kills the people whose rights he once saved ...
