NYC 'Trump Tombstone' on Display After Police Confiscate It
By VERENA DOBNIK, ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK — Sep 24, 2016, 8:05 PM ET
A granite tombstone bearing the name Donald J. Trump that police confiscated in Central Park months ago is now on display at a Brooklyn gallery.
The year of Trump's birth and the words "Made America Hate Again" also are chiseled into the 500-pound slab.
Artist Brian Andrew Whiteley said he created it to remind the Republican presidential nominee that he has "stirred the pot of racism, anger and fear and to help Donald reflect on the legacy he's leaving behind."
Dubbed "The Trump Tombstone," it first appeared last spring in Central Park's Sheep Meadow.
