Did they really think no one would object? A group of residents have filed a suit to block installation of two 10-foot tall statues — one of St.  Michael, the Catholic patron saint of police, and the other of St. Florian, Catholic patron saint of firefighters – outside Quincy’s new public safety building, claiming they violate the state’s constitutional ban on promoting one religion over another, according to Boston 25 News and Universal Hub. … Forget the legitimate legal concerns or the fact the statues cost $850,000. One of the residents says the statue of St. Michael stepping on the head of a demon sort of looks like how George Floyd was killed. And you know what? It does! … The demon (see below) also looks like a Notre Dame gargoyle, a Middle Ages touch I’m not sure artistically works on a modern public safety building. I could be wrong.
