Racism? Your kidding me right? He voted against the killing of all the Orcs, plus let Saurfang take back his son's body, not sure why people think he's a racist... Also racism is almost constantly used as a poor excuse to end a discussion nowadays, so please don't use that word again.
And the statue in stormwind was build BEFORE death wings attack, and before people were homeless and starving... No offence, but why do people think that that was done after that? It makes no sence?

And No offence to Thrall, but all this time he had been preaching about peace, yet dind't really do anything for it. He let the Forsaken genocide people by the thousands, so I agree with that.

Wow, seems like I touched a nerve there. I'm not big on being lumped into random categories, such as 'people using racism to end a discussion' - I was actually attempting to make what I consider a valid point (as I said, not every decision he's made is a terrible one, but he never hesitates to use racial slurs against orcs). When we're talking about real life (which we're not, btw - I thought we were having a friendly discussion about fictional characters), nothing annoys me more than people who needlessly play the 'racist' card. But I'm not re-iterating random crap I've heard people say, I'm simply drawing that conclusion pertaining to Wrynn based on what I've seen in-game. I respect that you don't feel that way, so dismount that high horse and take a chill pill, bro. :P
When Wrynn came back from the Icecrown campaign, as it says in the game, he found his people essentially falling apart. That statue was introduced in the pre-Cata patch, which means that it was built somewhere in the interim between killing Arthas and the rise of Deathwing. Point being, regardless of exactly when it was built, it was still made during a point in time when the people of SW needed those resources (among other things).
And I agree with you about Thrall.

I get it, you like Wrynn and you feel you have good reason to. That's fine. I don't like him, and I feel I have good reason to. That's fine too. :]

The same slurs are also used byt he Orcs on humans, and for that matter we could call everyone a racist. But everyone his own opinion ofcourse.

And the statue was made by Blizzard to somehow add some new changes to the old SW, along with the devastation. For all we know, it could be made for him by the new masons to get into his favor.

Lets all agree to disagree then :)
