I signed the Hitchens petition. Not sure about the moon, sorry, Asmo but we might disturb the cheese.

If Hitch is depicted smoking perhaps a tobacco company will pay for it.
Or not, I'm not sure if the manner of his death would make it a no go.

I think the Hitch statue should have a cigarette, a glass and a thoughtful expression.

You should be more concerned about disturbing the coin operated stove, defender of the cheese.

I  would like to see that.

Absolutely! He did smoke like a steam locomotive and indulged in a glass of strong stuff every now and then. I see no problem in recognising that.

I also look forward to the angry "Think of the CHILDREN!!11!!!!!1!ONE!11" movements' reaction to such a statue if indeed it gets its smoke and its drink.

wrath and dark clouds gather force.
