Because I Can !
They can remove monuments and ain't a lot I can do about it !
I can stamp pennies and put them in circulation - they might be in circulation for hundreds of years.
Ain't much anyone can do about my pennies*. If it makes you mad "I WIN !"
if it makes you glad " I WIN !"
*Section 331 of Title 18 of the United States code provides criminal penalties for anyone who fraudulently alters, defaces, mutilates impairs, diminishes, falsifies, scales, or lightens any of the coins coined at the Mints of the United States. This statute means that you may be violating the law if you change the appearance of the coin and fraudulently represent it to be other than the altered coin that it is. As a matter of policy, the Mint does not promote coloring, plating or altering U.S. coinage: however, there are no sanctions against such activity absent fraudulent intent.

We been tellin ya it wasn't gonna stop with things Confederate --
Statue in Boston of Abraham Lincoln
with freed slave kneeling at his feet is removed !
It's a shame - I'm no fan of Lincoln but feel that the vandalism and legal removal of our historic monuments is shameful.

I am only one !
Virginia has turned into a Democrat State.
I had decided to not vote figuring my one vote wouldn't matter.
But the words of my ancestor came to mind -
William Henry Tatum
“When I volunteered I really did not know how long of a time it was for, and in fact I did not care. I am , with the other 12 month volunteers, called upon to reenlist in accordance with an act of congress of Dec 11th 1861 and I am called on to decide what I should do, before we are mustered out of service. I think that with everybody else , that the period will be the most critical one in our history, our enemy are perfectly aware of the straight in which we are placed and will certainly endeavor to take advantage of it. Now what is my duty, to go home and leave our defense to an undisciplined militia who will make a sorry fight at best, leaving it in the range of probability that the northern hessians will overrun our state before the summer is over and thereby bring ruin on us all? Or stay in the field, determined to see the end of this business before we give it up. I might say to myself I am only one, I will not be missed, but ought we to allow such selfish considerations to govern us, our whole army is made up of individuals, and suppose each was to say the same thing”?
So I went and voted today.

Rail Splitter Penny !
I've been Counter striking pennies for years !
Despite what a few claim it's not illegal !
As a matter of policy, the Mint does not promote coloring, plating or altering U.S. coinage: however, there are no sanctions against such activity absent fraudulent intent. ... Stamping words or letters on a coin is perfectly legal.
I just got a roll of Lincoln Rail Splitter pennies.
The results are better than I had hoped for !
