Let's party like it's 1899

To: Frank Butler
County Inspector
Bartholomew County, Indiana

Dear Mr. Butler,

I wish to applaud you for protecting our community from the horrible obscenity of the Venus de Milo and Michaelangelo's David. It is clear that if we allow reproductions of classic artwork to be displayed where children and horses can see them, we will go the same way as the Italians, who are, well, funny-talkin' furriners, not real Americans like you and I. We must protect the moral purity of America and Americans from these funny foreign ideas like "art", and I thank you for your sterling defense of the values of our community, where we don't want none of them funny outsider idears coming in here and rousing folks up. Them outsiders might call Michaelangelo's David art, but we both know it's just some guy with his pants down. Oh sure, them outsiders might make fun of you as being out of a bad Simpsons episode, but we good Americans know you're not a cartoon, so stand by your guns in defending America from that horrible foreign "art" stuff!

Sincerely,
Badtux the Snarky Penguin

Us good Americans know the one on the left is art, and the one on the right is obscene.

Ground rules: Comments that consist solely of insults, fact-free talking points, are off-topic, or simply spam the same argument over and over will be deleted. The penguin is the only one allowed to be an ass here. All viewpoints, however, are welcomed, even if I disagree vehemently with you.

WARNING: You are entitled to create your own arguments, but you are NOT entitled to create your own facts. If you spew scientific denialism, or insist that the sky is purple, or otherwise insist that your made-up universe of pink unicorns and cotton candy trees is "real", well -- expect the banhammer.
