..and structural support of this edifice.
It in no way indicates anything about the occupants of this building other than their current column-supplemented-building-dweller status. No assumptions should be made that this or any other column is somehow linked to, or is indicative of the following
traits of the people within these premises:
Ability,
Intelligence,
Honesty,
Leadership skills
Further, it should be noted that column festooned buildings can house all manner of deplorable individuals who may use the sense of awe these columns instill in a gullible public to assist them in getting away with a wide array of misdeeds, from minor social injustice, to corruption to outright inhuman barbarism, war, destruction and human degradation.
Good, just and intelligent people may dwell within a column adorned structure but such traits should not be assumed simply by the existence of this, or any other architectural element.
An example of odious, wicked and bad columns

Damn. I was just about to post this exact same
idea. |

If such signs were put up, it would be a
columnity
|
|
|
What if there's five columns? |
|
|
Then you're Napoleon, and we claim our five
dollars. |
|
|
The people who hide behind a facade of columns
surely act with columnious disregard for their fellow
man. |
|
|
And while we're at it can we drop this silent N
nonsense? |
|
|
This looks like a job for... Columnbo. |
|
|
Right! In the pillory with the lot of you! |
|
|
Column what you will, but don't forget they keep the roof over your
head. |
|
|
And don't even get me started on pilasters. |
|
|
Why, would that constitute an im-pediment ? |
|
|
This is right out of order. |
