Not in YOUR museum though, unless it was loaned by the country it belongs to. And to say "oh it's safer here in our nice white museums" is nothing short of the continued patriarchal attitude that the British have towards other countries and races. You think it's safer with you? Too bad, it's not your call to make.
In so many cases that exact sentiment just turned out to be true though. How many ancient artifacts have been destroyed by political/religions extremists? How many more were lost due to neglect or because people tore them apart to use them as building materials? It probably wasn't right to take them at the time but man, am I glad they took them.
British people are also not good at preserving history. Almost every ruined castle was at one point torn down for building materials. It's probably the most common theme I read about on the little information plaques on them
You're just underscoring my argument. If the British were about to tear down Stonehenge for building a shopping mall and out of nowhere the Black Panther's stealth jet materialized to take the entire thing to the Wakanda national museum, I'd be absolutely fine with it.
Ah, you were talking about the British museum specifically, rather than Britain in general. I didn't read your first comment properly :)
