Did MLK command the killing of American soldiers?

That's a man lift guys. I know these people are probably retarded, but they aren't going to attempt to remove the statue on that, it's probably just there to do some advance sighting and observation. They are going to need a crane for this thing obviously.

I guess they're just going to keep trying to see if they can get an extra 20 ft out of that lift... fricking tards.

But they're also going to need someone to get up there and rig the damn thing. How are they going to get someone up on that statue with a manlift that doesn't reach?

I just left from out there and there are no cranes. Just a manlift.

These "operators" are amateurs. There is no way these are professional construction workers.

Wouldn't they have been enemy soldiers from his POV?

Funny. Andrew Johnson (who pardoned him) and Gerald Ford (who restored his citizenship) didn't seem to think so.

If in the opinion of two Presidents he wasn't a traitor, then who the frick are you?

Nope. you see those wood pads they are amateurishly jerking off that flatbed? That is for the crane they are going to bring in later. Lets just hope that the crane operator has more experience than the excavator and lift operators or someone is going to get badly injured.

Clearly the guys back in the 1880s saw this day coming and wanted to make it as tough as possible to demolish.

They still have the street car cables up. I don't see how they can use a crane.

You could say the same for any nation who fought against the US. Should we put up statues of Korean generals in our streets?
