Sculptor of Wall Street’s Charging Bull Wants ‘Fearless Girl’ Statue Moved

The sculptor of Wall Street’s “Charging Bull” statue on Wednesday demanded the removal of the “Fearless Girl” statue that’s faced off against the bull since last month.

Arturo Di Modica said his 11-foot-tall bull is supposed to represent “freedom in the world, peace, strength, power and love” but “Fearless Girl” has turned his work’s message into something negative.

Looks like a stupid girl to me.

You don’t have to be very bright to know not to mess with a bull. Of course, Lie-berals having grown up in a walled community wouldn’t know that.

Is the statue of the girl in some sad way supposed to represent Elizabeth Warren?

Have you noticed, when it comes to creative endeavors, leftists are nothing but reactionaries anymore? They deface an original work with their stupid little political pieties du jour, that’s all they ever do.

I wondered when this would happen. Arguably the girl statute violates the federal Visual Artists Rights Act, if the original artist’s consent was not obtained. Stupid law to start with (original artist retains rights over product and its display even if it was sold to customer), but it may very well apply here.

What’s that saying, “Mess with the bull, and you get the horns.”

Democrats ruin everything.

They are why we can’t have nice things.

The Bull artist should modify his piece by welding a little girl with the horn sticking out her backside, and hang a sign on the existing brat that says “NEXT!”

Oh such a brave little girl posing with arms akimbo, you are so important! Surely your bravery will transform the world! If you were really as clever as you think you are, you’d realize that the bull is likely to trample your dumb ass if you stand in front of him, taunting. Ya might have lived to see another day if you weren’t so full of yourself.

No, the statue is a marketing scheme for an exchange-traded fund that promotes female diversity in the corporate "boardroom."
