At least they didn't riddle it with bullet holes.  I guess that's an improvement.

I surprised that several cops weren't wounded or killed in a shootout with the statue  :P
Freedom is a heavy load, a great and strange burden for the spirit to undertake. It is not easy. It is not a gift given, but a choice made, and the choice may be a hard one. The road goes upward toward the light; but the laden traveller may never reach the end of it.  - Ursula Le Guin

And then they played video games.

That is the winnigist article in a long time.
That is all. *expletive deleted*ck you all, eat *expletive deleted*it, and die in a fire. I have considered writing here a long parting section dedicated to each poster, but I have decided, at length, against it. *expletive deleted*ck you all and Hail Satan.

I'm surprised they didn't shoot other statues that resembled that statue.

Good thing there wasn't a statue of a dog.

Didn't something like this happen with a Laura Croft statue?
"so I ended up getting the above because I didn't want to make a whole production of sticking something between my knees and cranking. To me, the cranking on mine is pretty effortless, at least on the coarse setting. Maybe if someone has arthritis or something, it would be more difficult for them." - Ben

What the excited male cops did to that statue is neither "child safe" nor a fit subject for APS.  :O
