Tweet“Proof our country has gone to hell” is what one angry person tweeted after seeing a bronze sculpture of two girls taking a selfie in front of the Sugar Land, Texas City Hall.

According to a release from the sweetest city in the country, the sculpture, along with another bronze sculpture portraying a guitar player while sitting on the ledge of a fountain facing city walk represents activities which are common in the plaza.

Other angry tweets are questioning the use of tax-payer money to fund the project, but the two sculptures are part of a 10-piece collection donated by a Sugar Land resident to the City through the Sugar Land Legacy Foundation.

Now me, I can personally find outrage in a lot of things, but this? Once again, the wonderful world wide web demonstrates how far we have come as a people.
