Oh, yes, by all means, remove it you piggies! Gawd forbid you give up any of your dominion!

Like the Raiders, and soon the Athletics, it was probably moved there from Oakland.

They’d declare it a National Monument and a federal crime to deface it, just like the insanity about the skid marks on the *gay pride* crosswalk.

Me, too. I think they found a group that was responsible for setting it up. Not sure.

I wonder if some whimpering Democrats gingerly came up to try to work up the courage to touch it. Then go back to eating their Banana Republic bananas.

I think there’s been as many as half a dozen or maybe even a dozen scattered around the southwest over the past couple of years. Pretty expensive endeavor by someone(s).

What is it made of?

It's made of Freedom. That's why it's such a threat to the authorities.

It didn’t have a gay pride symbol on it, hence its mandatory removal.

My first thought as well.

Probably because (1) the gov. wasn’t paid its permitting fee and (2) it’s not rainbow colored.

What authorities have the authority to taken down the monolith that was standing there doing nothing?

It was there to collect Uranium PU-36 for the Explosive Space Modulator. You shouldn’t have removed it. Marvin is going to be so angry!

It’s only 6 ft tall...Somehow, my imagination perceived it as 30 or 40 ft tall.

So, what did the “authorities” do with it?

= = =

They are practicing for taking down a person standing there doing nothing.

Why the hell couldn't they just leave it alone? On their days off they must be HOA neighborhood wardens.
