Kentucky man, Daniel Hafley, has such a statue (pictured above for you to gawk at). And some people are none too pleased about it. But Hafley claims his actions are not that of a bigot, but rather, just a guy who appreciates a quality joke. His daughter Angie Hafley Stevens, on the other hand, doesn't exactly deny that her father is a racist, but while feuding with the commenters in the Lex18 article about her dad's questionable taste in statues, she claims he "served his country in the U.S. Army for 18 years and defended millions of strangers in Viet Nam. Therefore, I think that he earned his right to voice his opinions and display anything he wants." While that may be true, someone needs to tell this stupid bitch, this isn't Vietnam, there are rules. Also, as much as we all want Vietnam to be two separate words, Angie, it stubbornly remains one.
