New York will erect a statue honoring the legacy of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg in her native Brooklyn, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Saturday.
“Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg selflessly pursued truth and justice in a world of division, giving voice to the voiceless and uplifting those who were pushed aside by forces of hate and indifference,” Cuomo said in a statement.

“As a lawyer, jurist,and professor, she redefined gender equity and civil rights and ensured America lived up to her founding ideals -- she was a monumental figure of equality, and we can all agree that she deserves a monument in her honor," Cuomo said.
The governor said he will appoint a commission "in the coming days" to come up with ideas for the design and location of the memorial.
New York Mayor Bill de Blasio tweeted "I couldn't agree more," after Cuomo's announcement. "Her memory will live on. I promise you that."

Put the statue next to a Marx statue.
“New York Gov. Cuomo says Ginsburg statue to be erected in Brooklyn”
Yay! A statue we can decapitate and tear down.
In her mind I guess, but her job was to uphold the Constitution, not be a SJW.
Will he put it up next to the Scalia statue he had erected? If not, then he is using his office to put up a statue that is strictly for his political beliefs and no one elses.
Your point is an excellent one, my FRiend.
That said, I've been looking for some reputable estimates of the excess deaths in nursing homes due to Mister Cuomo's direct decisions to send the infected and contagious to reside at close quarters with our precious senior citizens (who built this country).
Do you happen to have any sources for the 30,000 old folks?
BTW, and for comparison, the Bataan Death march claimed a range of about 6,000 to 18,000 hideous deaths.
Thanks in advance.
when Roe is overturned we tear it down.
No no. No more statues!
Do you think Conservatives will knock it down?
funny, I thought they would do that.
Quick, someone find something one of her ancestors did or said that a snowflake doesn’t love.
Place it next to the statues of Karl Marx and Vlad Lenin.
Is that the anode (or cathode, or whatever) sticking in that child’s head in that picture? To draw the bronzing material? That’s a little ghoulish! Interesting but strange.
It would make the pigeons happy.
How long before they make her a Saint?
GOOD! I will have a place to piss when I go to NY.
Should their be a conservative movement about statues of people that should not be honored? How about a massive pro-life siege, sit in, protest, demo against any statue of Ginsberg???
This begs the question of what would happen to the statue if it were continually immersed in a bath of warm water, salt and ammonia? If you know what I mean.
State’s hemorrhaging money, but they have money for garbage like this. Typical dummocrap libtards.
