The U.S. no longer represents the values of freedom therefore it should send the Statue of Liberty back to France, a Socialist French Euro-deputy demanded Sunday.

Raphael Glucksmann, of the Socialists and Democrats group, told a cheering convention of his Place Publique leftist movement how disappointed he is in the U.S. and why it should not keep what was originally a gift from France:

Give us back the Statue of Liberty.

We’re going to say to the Americans who have chosen to side with the tyrants, to the Americans who fired researchers for demanding scientific freedom: ‘Give us back the Statue of Liberty.

We gave it to you as a gift, but apparently you despise it. So it will be just fine here at home.

[ChicagoConservative27]

This coming from a socialist? Demand this 🖕

[Jolla]

Sure, give us the lives of those guys buried at Normandy.

[z3n]

Right. Let’s bill them for WWi, WWii, and Vietnam

[Ge0ffrey]

Indian giver.

[skr]

Okay, but France has to pay for removal, shipping and handling. We’ll chip in the bubblewrap for old-times’ sake.

[Tell It Right]

I’d rather give France New York City

[Highest Authority]

Come and try to take it.

[GreatRoad]

Do they want their poor huddled masses shipped back as well?

[Vision]

It’s bizarre that Socialists think they can lecture others on freedom. They’re nuts.

Indian giver.

[SMARTY]

Ha! ...Along WITH that tin whore in the harbor

[telescope115]

“Ask him about the cemeteries, Dean.”

[mairdie]

Can we replace it with a full sized statue of Trump? I’ll vote for that.

[brownsfan]

Has the world just gone stupid? I don’t know if people are just crazier than they used to be, or that we just hear from them more because of the internet.

It’s kind of unsettling.

[mairdie]

You answered my question. Clapping enthusiastically.

[linMcHlp]

Returning to my original view re the war, Russian Invasion of Ukraine . . .

The whole EU thing from west to east, is a civil war between various flavors of communism-and-socialism that are rooted as corrupt organs in varying degrees within the *verbally warring* and *some actually warring* parties.

[FLT-bird]

In return we demand France return rule over the country to Nazis and start speaking German.

I mean since we’re revoking the gifts we’ve given to each other and all.......

[OttawaFreeper]

Maybe he should ask for Lenin’s statue (in WA IIRC) instead, lol.
