From the first link above: UPDATE: Apparently, the sculpture is not intended to depict Che Guevara, but rather a street performer dressed as Che Guevara. Which Im sure makes all the difference in the world to the families of Ches victims.

This has to be a joke. How would this get past any committee in charge of ok’ing public art?

Down town Manhattan on the east side is a building named Red Square. On the roof that you can see from the street is a statue of V. I. Lenin. So if some knuckle heads wanted to petition to have a Che statue in central park, I wouldn’t be surprised. Lot of idiots living in Manhattan.

That’s a private building, you can put up any junk on private property and if it’s not totally visually or noise-level irratating the owner gets to keep it. But a public park has to have standards, and should not put up statues to proven murderers.

Wouldn’t the Fairness Doctrine require a monument to Augusto Pinochet next to Che?

I think Che's appeal to the Left is his hairdo and snappy beret.
I am not joking.

Not in NYC, or most parts of the N.E. for that matter.
Of course there probably is something in law about your having to share your needles, and pushing your victims to the side of the paths, so as not to cause injury to others.
