The local council have aproved and unveiled yet another statue to a man who is nothing more than an epic c**t and perpetrator of crimes against humanity.

In 2010 the town of Denbigh in north Wales, keen to provide a popularist attraction, intend spending £31,000 of public funds to erect a statue to 'honour' HM Stanley in the main town square justifying their actions by claiming Stanley to be "Denbigh's answer to Indiana Jones" and saying “There are statues to John Lennon, Eric Morcambe (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GR9Q1UOaZk&feature=related) andBrian Clough (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tXSnxo-doqU&feature=related).. Stanley deserves one too”.

It's sad to live in a county where the councillors are so despicably out of touch with what people actually think. So sad that they would try and liken a person who was guilty of crimes against humanity to that of a musician, a comedian or a football player or even a fictional movie character, none of which did anything like what Stanley did......

I do not know what the penalty for defacing or destroying a statue is over there, but this one will make a nice target.

“The white officer in command ordered us to cut off the heads of the men and hang them on the village palisades ... and to hang the women and the children on the palisade in the form of a cross.”

^^^whoa now that is pretty bad

This man does not deserve a statue...
