This is the new Che Guevara sculpture installed in Central Park.
This is bloody horrible, I tell you, horrible.  I’ve always been confused by the far left’s fascination/ignorance with this mass murderer communist.  It’s like they have no interest in studying who he really was, what he really did, and how he really did it.
This would never ever fly in Miami, where I lived the last 6 years of my life.  Go mention the name ‘Che’ to an old-timer Cuban that lived through the Cuban revolution and get back to me.  I doubt you’ll want to praise him anymore.  He murdered thousands of innocent people in the name of ‘change’ and ‘revolution’.
He is a damn embarrassment in our Latin American history and I could think of a dozen honorable men and women who deserve a sculpture much more than El Che.

 Agreed. It’s as absurd as worshipping Augusto Pinochet.

Comments coming from those who lived there during the era I’m sure.
