What about one of the Central Park Jogger?
That’s sick, yes, but it would be a reminder to people to be careful.

The Belgians haven’t torn down Brussels’ Mannekin Pis yet? So it’s still peeing in the heart of the EU?

She is insane.

I am sure the statues are of men, who are famous for their accomplishments and contributions. Removing those statues, just because they are men is terrible.

Instead, they could have looked for and found a few famous, accomplished women throughout history and put up some statues of these accomplished women too.

“The existence of statues depicting men in Central Park is the biggest problem that I face as a woman living in New York City.”

The 19th Amendment was a huge mistake.

Replace them with statues of Barbi Benton, Raquel Welch, Joey Heatherton, Ann Margaret and so on......

You have to qualify that with the age they should be that the statue represents.

That’s fake blonde, too.

My wife is a real blonde, but most fellows don't hold it against a woman who colors her hair blonde. There are worse things to fake.

I don't watch TV anymore.

But I know Kathy Timpf and she is NOT a smelly twit by her own admission.

Why would you even say something like that about her?

She's very smart, conservative and good-looking. She is NOT going to say she is a smelly twit on Hannity.

You must me hateful or drunk or both.

Check her out on The Gutfeld Show on Fox. She’s a comedian. It’s a bit. She’s a hoot. A hot hoot. You’d like her. A lot. On second thought, stay away from her. She’s mine.
