I'll do it for 1m.

Let's go halvies at 2M. I mean, don't want people to think we could do it THAT much better than the government. Removing a statue is serious business.

I got one of those heavy duty rated Husky shovels from Home Depot that I can bring. I also have a pickup truck and know just enough Spanish to get the day-workers (also found at Home Depot) to do it for us for just a few hundred bucks. If they get out of line, we can threaten them with deportation since it’s against the law where I’m from.

As dawn broke at a frigid Arlington National Cemetery on Wednesday morning, workers using a crane and harnesses began to take down a controversial statue that had stood there for more than a century.

Hours earlier, a federal judge had ruled an effort to halt the removal of the towering Confederate Memorial had no merit, and the contractors hired by the cemetery moved quickly to get the statue down and into custom-built wooden crates.

I could hire a group of guys outside of Home Depot for a couple hundred dollars and have it removed
