I know one thing, that choker is too low, if they do get it off it will be top heavy and flip over....

At this point, the frustration is real, and with no other recourse what do monument supporters have left but sarcasm, and tit-for-tat?

What is "tat"?

How do I trade it for tit in a "tit-for-tat" scenario?

Being reported all over that the fricking morons can't even lift the base without the crane burning up!

Did they bite off more than they can chew?

If it's the same company that won the bid, absolutely. They're terrible to deal with.

Members of preservationist groups are documenting all of this. We will know sooner rather than later which company did this, where Jefferson Davis was taken, and all of that.

PGT is like 5 times the size of the Davis monument. This should at least be entertaining.

They are removing the rigging. They will be left with a pedestal with what looks like a big middle finger sticking up in the middle.

A monument to Mitch's mayoralship indeed.

It's EXACTLY what he wants, Y.A. Tittle, and there ain't a damn thing anybody can do about it without being called every name in the book, by equally heinous Mitch supporters.

I don't think so. They use Firefighters, because despite being illegally masked, the Chief was still identified as one of the ones taking down the Liberty Monument.

If it's S&WB...I'm sure that those "private donations" will cover it.
