Well this just further reinforces the "brilliance" of recent marketing ploys. I give it under a week before someone spray paints Nazi on it.

Cool.
He definitely deserves a statue more than some historical figures.

The statue isn't holding a kite shield, so Steve's still a real American hero here. Oh, and HAIL HYDRA

Cool. Philly has it's Rocky statue. London has a Sherlock Holmes one. Riverside Illinois has this:

So why not. Now, how long until someone spray-paints "Hail HYDRA" on it? I give it two weeks personally, three tops.
