If this guy has a statue, why not Michael Brown?

After the dust settles, and the thugs who ran Ferguson’s city government ride into the sunset, the liberated serfs of that medieval fiefdom should put up a statue of Michael Brown. His life bought their freedom. Sure, he was a criminal, but so was every Confederate traitor memorialized by the numerous statues scattered across the South. (It’s interesting that copper thieves don’t steal them for the valuable metal. Does Southern patriotism stay their hands?) By the way, bronze is the most durable material known to man; after the human species vanishes those statues could stick around for another several billion years.
