>The historic statue Richard the Lionheart, located in Old Palace Yard, Westminster, is among the most famous statuary ever produced in England
>For the past few months, however, it's fallen under fire by Islamic and Islamic-friendly groups
>Richard is of course most famous for his actions during the Third Crusade, during which he led an army into the holy land and clashed with Muslim forces led by Saladin
>Some view his statue as "racist" in light of this and demand it be taken down
>Richard is also famous for being captured by the French and ransomed back for nearly all of the valuables in England, leading some to call him "incompetent"
>The local government has agreed to look over the request next month. No word has been given as to what or who might replace England's most famous warrior king
