Fuck yeah, you remember when he lost the fight against the Brooklyn museum of art for a painting of the virgin Mary made of elephant dung?
In other cultures, that dung symbolizes the potential for life, but it offended that sensitive fascist bitch to where he tried to cut 1/3 of our tax money to the museum until they took it down. Courts denied that loser for violating the first amendment. And that kept happening, repeatedly, he'd violate the first amendment, lose the associated lawsuit and cost the City millions in the process... Repeatedly. What a loser.
Holy shit (no pun intended) I forgot about that. Wasn't there also vaginal blood virgin Mary or was that something else?
Was he also mayor when they found the Indian burial grounds under the civic center predating five points, and then did nothing about it?
I think it was the black family burial grounds under that federal building on court st(?), but you might also be right. There was a lot going on in this big city.
E: this is what I'm talking about, same thing?
Yes! That was the burial ground! I went to high school downtown but for some reason we never went northeast of city hall to that side of the plaza. I remember seeing it in person after reading that and feeling like a tourist. Meanwhile I was like 3 blocks from J&R where we used to buy tapes with our lunch money after starving all week
