A new gold statue that pays tribute to Ruth Bader Ginsburg's fight for abortion rights has been called 'satanic' and mocked for its horns and tentacles after it was unveiled in New York. 
The eight-foot sculpture, named 'NOW,' stands on the courthouse of the Appellate Division building in the Flatiron District, alongside statues of famed lawmakers like Moses, Confucius and Zoroaster....The sculpture's hair is like a ram's horns and its arms have been replaced with protruding tentacles.

    If people had installed a Christian statue up there, the left would have climbed up there with a rope and torn it down.
We never do anything but gripe. That thing is laughing at people because it knows we haven’t the gumption to remove it and fight back.

    Don’t tell anybody, but the sculptor’s great great grandfather fought for the Confederacy and owned slaves.

    The other statue seems to be saying “Get this crazy B outta here!”

    Just go tear it down. Apparently it’s ok to do that now.

    The horns represent demonic power. The tentacles symbolize the spread of evil. The huge butt personifies the horrible apparition of Hillary rising out of Hell every 4 years to run for president. The End will come when it finally wins, so the legends say.

    You’re right. In vitro would be the only way.
