Since this comment is off topic though, I'm fairly certain she will be able to not respond. :lol: :lol: :lol:
There's another thread for you to post your thoughts about me specifically. This thread is about the Columbus statue. I did copy and paste your feedback within that thread though so you can carry on.

Hey Rita, I know it's asking a lot since I'm living rent free in your head, but could you add a Keurig and an ottoman in my room? If I'm going to be spending that much time there, I'd like to be comfortable :lol: :lol:

Yet, folks don't emphasize their issues as much, because their contribution to music outweighs their fallacies. Richard Pryor inspired a whole new generation of comics with his brand of comedy. Yes, much of it would not be PC today.. Pryor even stopped using the N-word in his routines after awhile.
Is there a statue of Elton John in Peoria?

He's not from Peoria, Illinois, America or North America. I'm sure you could start a Go Fund Me or something, though.

No, but I'm sure there are statutes or buildings named after the aforementioned celebrities somewhere that no one is insisting they be renamed or torn down, including cities that have Columbus or Confederate statues.

I think we need a big statue of Mudvayne. They're from Peoria.
