Simple way to take care of this problem.

Three people dress up as Uncle Sam, Lady Liberty and Ronald Reagan. Walk down to the restaurant with sledgehammers in tow, and sledge the Lenin statue down. If possible, bring along a cheap boombox and play a CD of John Philip Sousa music and a recording of the Ronaldus Magnus Berlin Wall speech.

Call it performance art and get a grant from the Nat. Endowment for the Arts…

then you’ll be safe.. after all.. it’s art.. if you are stopped, that is censorship.. the worst PC offense possible..

That’s carrying moral blindness to a disgusting level. It’s also a deliberate effort to gloss over the truth. Lenin was not a Soviet leader in the ’70s and ’80s.

The leader of the soviets in the 80s? wasn’t it the bald dude with the hammer and sickle tattooed in red on his head?

Mikail Gorby ( if you have listened to Rush back in the day you will remember what the Gorbasm was )

On the other hand, I wouldn’t see a Nazi-era theme restaurant as benign at all. The Nazis were thoroughly and deeply evil in a way that the Soviets of the ’70s and ’80s never were, Gulags notwithstanding. Lenin and Hitler were just not in the same league when it comes to evil.

Hmph. I thought it was funny.

Of course, you will have to be willing to pay the price for the crime of Vandalism, and if the cops show up before you are done, please don’t resist. Just put your sledges down and go with them quietly. However, If you are strong and quick about it, and willing to have a minor criminal record, three people working together could probably wreck the Lenin statue rather quickly.

With any luck you will gather supportive onlookers who will assist you in taking the statue down.

Obviously, legal methods are preferred. We conservatives don’t like breaking the law, it’s not our way. But if the law won’t do the right thing, sometimes you have to break it. As long as you can avoid physically hurting anyone.

The once great state of New Jersey.

New Jersey was great?

–Hex, across the river.

Red Square, the hipper-than-thou, Russian-themed restaurant and bar in The Quarter

Do they have shortages of food every night?
