Dunno,
When I served on the Student Council at St. Andrews (I ended up resigning because even as a socially liberal pagan, I didn't meet the de facto requirement to be an active and vociferous Communist in favor of enforced homosexual indoctrination) you wouldn't have been able to sell any statue on the basis that he was a white, male member of the military.
However if one had simply sold it as a statue honoring an individual who was born into a dysfunctional family, was divorced multiple times, who hated and resisted authority and was frequently in trouble with the law, who struggled with Alcoholism all his life, who almost had his career destroyed by age discrimination, spent much of his life destitute, and finally died of cancer - probably due to the fact that the government doesn't spend enough on healthcare, etc., etc. then you might have been able to swing it.
You just have to remember the heroes bad, victims good, rule... P.S. Try to be as shrill as possible when making such a presentation, it always helps.
