Weighing about a ton, the statue was initially erected in Richmond, Virginia, in 1925 by the Italian American community. The Italian American Cultural Association of Virginia (IACAVA) fought to take custody of the statue from Richmond officials after the far-left protesters toppled it during the BLM riot four years ago. It remained submerged in Richmond's Fountain Lake for two years until the IACAVA won a legal battle to salvage it.

Joe Biden, the placeholder-in-chief, showed up in Georgia [10-3-24] to give lip-service to the disaster and made promises of money to come, some twenty million dollars, and a recovery that will supposedly be totally undertaken by the federal government.
