Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for November 01, 2021

That’s mostly what Reagan said.

Must be a politician. Looks like he;s had some familiar friends stop by

We don’t need any monuments to politicians

Blandville doesn’t like controversy.

Fitting for the start of COP26 as I imagine this’d be a statue dedicated by Greta Thunberg at the summit except she used three ’Blah’s.

Less likelihood of being torn down this way…

Step back. Those could be feet of clay.

Ah! very blah-say, eh?!?

It should say “Come On, Man”.

She thinks they’re playing it safe. “Blah blah blah blah blah.” probably is or soon will offensive to someone. I’m kind of offended (or at least annoyed) when someone repeatedly responds with “Whatever.”

I doubt the sculptor cares as long as he gets paid for the work. If he chooses to post photos on his website, he can say who commissioned it and whether or not he agrees with the message. Sculptors have to eat, too.

Here’s proof that Wiley could say absolutely nothing and the jokers would make it about politics.

What can be said that hasn’t been said – repeatedly and at great length?

Maybe it’s time to give up on statues and plant trees.Preferably fruit trees.

A statue dedicated to trump

That’s quite an erection

Note the GOP slogan on the side of the monument.

Nope, tear in down , those shoes are Italian, and Columbus was Italian, so its got to go.

Actions speak louder than words and I’m not really hearing much out of the capital.

I’d like to be made into plastic statues, you know, the kind you put on your dashboard.

‘’I don’t care, if it rains or freezes, long as I got my plastic Redd Panda. Riding on the dashboard of my car.’’

Doesn’t sound as good as the original.

I like that.

It doesn’t matter what it says about a person on a plinth, it is who they were and what they did. Lots of these statues only have the person’s name and their dates of birth and death, and that hasn’t helped them.

The pigeons treat all statues the same.

Inscription done by Biden’s speech writer

The person depicted in the statue did nothing for me so it has to go.

Today’s statues of generals and politicians are modest affairs compared to the Romans. Although I could see The Great Prevaricator desiring to have a statue like Marcus Licinius Crassus was said to have built for himself … of solid gold!

Millennials’ Monument…

Not-so-fun fact: Most Confederate statues and monuments were NOT erected after the Civil War. Rather, they were built in the early 20th Century as part of the post-Reconstruction effort at enforcing Jim Crow laws and segregation. They parallel the rise of the KKK.

How’s about we just stop worshipping statues, flag, songs, and people we never met?

Depends on what/who the statue looks like.

Sounds like most politician’s

They finally found somebody they could make a statue for that didn’t do anything objectionable.

“It’s my estimation that every man ever got a statue made of him was one kind of SOB or another."

Malcolm Reynolds

Do we really need statues?

It must be a statue of a politician.

Think of how long it took a great man to carve Mount Rushmore.

Also think about why ANYBODY would want to carve Stone Mountain,Georgia.

As long as it isn’t a symbol of White Power" read the pedestal first.

Whenever #45 speaks, that’s all I hear.

And you’re still alive??

I’m beginning to wonder why we have statues. Sooner or later they all seem to fall out of favor.

Yup. Probably headed that way.
