      If it moves a global population to reconsider themselves and the value of art and free speech at large, then it will be more useful than anything else I’ve done with my life so far. Catch me if you can!

      Edit: Also, the key here is consent—the art owners are consenting. That is currently how we see private property—the right to keep or destroy.

      Plus, I sort of feel like we agree. If I’m right, you’re saying that life is more valuable than art. I’m saying that art and life are both very valuable, and this is a reasonable use for art. Devaluing art is devaluing the weight they are balancing against the value of his life, and I’m just saying that both are valuable and the loss of either would be a tragedy, rightfully so.
