Absolutely no! I did take some monumental pictures of it recently. And was surprised by the numbers doing the same. Why is city getting involved in this if they are not attempted to push conservative values on everyone else? Including the tourist trade. Are conservatives afraid of more business?

there didn't appear to be a mass amount of traffic being inconvenienced where the statue is currently located

She's a Palm Springs icon and needed to be in an obvious more visible space. She never should have left her spot on Palm Canyon Dr. Also, why didn't our city attorney check out the possibility of a lawsuit before she was placed in front of the museum. What a terrible waste of taxpayer waste of $$

The Palm Springs Art Museum had nothing to do with the lawsuit. It was filed by a group headed by Trina Turk a local business person who has some issue about the statue displaying Marilyn Monroes panties. She needs to relocate her business to El Paseo where conservative values are valued.

It should stay where it is, the only reason it is being moved is that the art museum thinks it is not art.

Trina Turk and her uptight rich friends need to move to El Paseo where her idiotic conservative values can be appreciated. She has cost the city money over much to do about nothing. Marilyn has become an iconic image of our city and the area.

Trina Turk should move to El Paseo where she can find more conservative cronies to do her bidding!

It's in the right location. Look at the crowds it draws. And it doesn't block the museum! ridiculous argument. Just troublemakers costing the city precious revenue. Go spend your time on something important.

It's in such a perfect spot great photos it just enhances that area. My fear is there they're going to move it off of that main area and there's going to be homeless people hanging on it there's going to be vandalism. And if it's too far off people who aren't really aware of it might miss it and not

IMO people with money have made this an issue to feed their EGOS.

Pride embraces unity by acknowledging that our differences create a stronger and richer society. Our valley is made up of parts that create one, spectacular whole. Recognizing the LGBT+ community doesn’t diminish any other part of our community. It recognizes and celebrates our shared humanity.

I believe for all we celebrate unity, we welcome all, no bigotry, no hate, just love for one and all.

I am against the current trend of marginalizing and alienating various groups of human beings. We're moving in the wrong direction imo.

There is no reality where we should not recognize each other When we recognize each other we unify All humans are created equal. Start with one group and it becomes a never ending tale Happy Holidays

United means everybody. Free speech is our right and everyone can celebrate their race, religion, creed or whatever they want. Trying to control others isn’t United. That’s divided.

With our country's current state Mr, Pradetto timing couldn't be more inapt. We should all be celebrating our differences and not creating more divisiveness. Mr. Pradetto needs to take a long hard look at himself to find out what is driving him to waste everyone's time on this.

At what point does the expectation for constant symbolic recognition transition from fostering inclusion to creating a fragmented public square, and can we move toward a model where quiet, mutual acceptance is valued over the ever-expanding need for formal visibility.

This is why we have Black History month, AAPI, Hispanic heritage to include each other! Its not meant to divide, its meant to be an opportunity to learn about one another and to realize we have more similarities then differences. Learn about one another, love one another. How did it all get so ugly?
