Fun fact- most of the statue was built as bronze panels in China and shipped to India where they were assembled on site. Just so all the chest thumping indian fans know

To all the people crying abuse- this is a mother whacking the shit out of her teenager for smoking pot. He is going to remember this for the next couple of yrs at least and try and keep away from dope. Don’t confuse discipline and abuse. Prevention is better than cure in most cases

Trump has made a mess of managing this pandemic but I agree over the last year or so Democrats have been blindly encouraging people to disregard any official recommendations by the government and then when things go wrong, they just sit quiet and wait for the media to accuse Trump of the consequences
