John Coopey tries to take wing and fly from wooden steps.
He was airborne for 20 seconds before he fell into Mrs. Borden's
carrot patch. Unortunately, he survived.

(just kidding, just kidding.)

have there been a large amount of peaceful requests to remove Marx's headstone John - I must have missed that - and there's a hell of a difference between a headstone and a statue - maybe you're confused ?

I think I see, Ian. I assume you'd support a large group of protesters led by Tommy Robinson pulling down Marx's headstone in Highgate cemetery?

The silence is deafening nowadays about the role of tribal Africa in
the sale of their its countrymen to the slave traders - even two
hundred years after this country outlawed the trade and sent the Royal Navy to enforce that decision. The captains of those vessels
didn't turn a profit though...maybe a reason why they have no statues?

Tom, thank you for your comment. I am encouraged by your words. Reminiscing provides an enormity of space from one’ personal experience of life of life itself. Are you still using your fountain pen? Thanks again. Keith

Good point about the 'racist' tag Brian - I've changed it in line with your suggestion - I didn't think it sounded right either.
There's a big difference between a large gathering of protestors and a mob John - if the statue had been taken down due to the peaceful requests to do so - the many peaceful requests by the way - there would not have been the small amount of 'mob' behaviour (in relation to the size of the protest.

I’ve always felt this is simply historical Denial and shows a lack of maturity in accepting what we once were. What next? Tear down Boudicca and her Daughters for the slaughter at Londinium, Verulamium and Camulodunum? Nelson, for the killing of Neapolitan prisoners of war? Likewise, Henry V? What about banning Kipling? Twain!
Denial.
