You are right that there is no such thing as a person who has never hurt someone else or done something shameful.No I am the one who has said I wouldnt put statues up of anyone. Please read my posts and dont ask about doing what I have told you I wouldnt do.
And I asked you the question who has lead an exemplary life that you suggested because I would say there isnt anyone.
However, there are plenty of people whose heroic actions are deserving of honor.
