California Democrats Demand Removing John Wayne’s Name From Airport

[rayg]

The Democratic Party of Orange County, California, demanded removing actor John Wayne’s name from its airport due to past “racist and bigoted” remarks Wayne made, it announced Friday.

The party created a resolution to remove Wayne’s name and likeness based on Wayne’s “white supremacist, anti-LGBT, and anti-Indigenous views” Wayne expressed in a 1971 interview, according to the document.

The move came in solidarity with widespread calls to remove “white supremacist symbols” and recognize their impact on the black community and “other oppressed groups,” the resolution stated.

“The Democratic Party of Orange County condemns John Wayne’s racist and bigoted statements, and calls for John Waynes’ [sic] name and likeness to be removed from the Orange County airport, and calls on the OC Board of Supervisors to restore its original name: Orange County Airport,” the resolution added.

My senior year of HS, in my gym locker, I kept a centerfold at the back. A nice one, not some beat up one. I figured if a gym teacher or coach ever saw it I might be asked to get rid of it, but nothing more. These days, expelled, or worse, probably. Then again the stuff the kids send each other on their phones makes a centerfold seem like old fashioned good clean fun.

Give it a week.

Funny thing, have you ever heard an Irishman complaining about how racist "The Quiet Man" is?

So did I -- let others read into it what they will.

My favorite scene is when the fight is starting, there is an old man, lying in bed, dying, with the women crying and the priest reading to him. He hears the noise of the fight, jumps up and runs outside to see.

Do you remember what the priest was reading?

"And then Conn of the Hundred Battles, aye and a thousand more besides . . . " That's from Tain Bo Cuailnge, the ancient Irish epic.

Since white men invented the airplane and airports why not just close them all regardless of names?

White men invented the automobile also making it racist to even drive to an airport in a Ford, GM, Chrysler or any other make.

What's with all the race posts all of a sudden? Another rally happening?

Why are you offended? Don't like the truth?
