Twisted Gun
United Nations Sculpture Garden, most notable for the "twisted gun" sculpture, one of the most photographed spots at the UN. This sculpture was a gift from the Government of Luxembourg presented to the United Nations in 1988. It consists of a large replica in bronze of a 45-calibre revolver, the barrel of which is tied into a knot. It was created in 1980 as a peace symbol by artist Karl Fredrik Reutersward, and is located in the Visitor's Plaza, facing First Avenue at 45th Street.

They should give him a "twisted gun" exactly like the one he created and let him walk down 1st ave. and 45th st. at 3 am in the morning and by himself using it for his protection in NYC especially,in that area......  Good luck,Karl.......
