The answer in this case is Littleton, Colorado. I cannot "fathom", if you will pardon the pun from an old shipdriver, why any parent would object to a statue of Danny Dietz. Why any parent would not be proud to tell his children that they could do a lot worse than to aspire to become the Danny Dietz of their generation. I have not openly wept for many years, but the photo of Mrs. Dietz was more than enough to push me over the edge. The vast majority of my posts here ask the question, “Where do we find such men?”.

I'd love to see statues of our boys who went to Viet Nam, say, being put up in parks everywhere, it's long overdue. Perhaps it could be a generational display....

I mean, if their child can become "disturbed" by merely looking at a statue with a gun, what does that say about the type of parenting they are receiving?

Rushmore. Danny Dietz would seem a fitting start. Trust me, it's *hard* to pass by those faces and not wonder, just for a minute or two, if you would at all measure up in their eyes. - Max I think Colorado needs its own version of Mt. Rushmore.

At some point, we have to throw Political Correctness out the door on its A$$ and retake our country. The good Citizens of Colorado must stand up for what is right and not allow the few to dicatate to the many. I say make the statue twice the originally planned size.

Shine a HUGE light on P.O. Dietz - for all to see - as a beacon of hope for generations to come.
