He'd also make a much cooler statue

"Melting down confederate statues and turning their remains into statues of the cast of hit Adult Swim animated series Aqua Teen Hunger Force" sounds like a great political platform. I'd vote for them.

It makes more sense if you realize that the Confederacy isn't the heritage they're celebrating. It's slavery.

Whenever someone tells me it's part of their heritage I challenge them to name the relative in question. When they try to make excuses about no one remembering that far back I drop that Jeb Stuart was my Great-Great-Great Grand Uncle and that I'm glad he's dead.

I bring up my great-great-granduncle Simian, who was a major in the Minnesota 1st.

And 15 years still feels too short. My town needs a Meatwad statue.
