“Leave the name, improve the food...

Man, the food was awful there.”

You just have to drive ten miles south to Mendocino. Several good places to eat there. Beautiful country!

Comments are quite amusing. My favorite:

“It is the southern states that need to address the injustices of the past pertaining to African-Americans AS WELL as the horrors which were inflicted upon the Native Americans!”

This moron wants to blame slavery and the Indian problem on southerners. He has no idea of what the northern states were doing to the southern states. No idea of the tariffs, no idea that there were thousands of blacks who owned slaves, no idea of the northerners who were making money off the cotton.

Here is what they are bellyaching about>>>>

In the summer of 1857, 1st Lt. Horatio G. Gibson, then serving at the Presidio of San Francisco, established a military post on the Reservation, approximately a mile and a half north of the Noyo River, and named it for his former commanding officer Capt. Braxton Bragg, who later became a General in the Army of the Confederacy.[9] The official date of the establishment of the fort was June 11, 1857; and its purpose was to maintain order on the reservation.

And yes, I do know they were talking about Ft Bragg, a town in Kaifornia, named in 1857 after the Bragg who later became a Confederate general. So What! Go to hell, all of those who want to rename, to abolish the Stars and Bars, who want to tear down statues and other memorials...you who want to do this are equally as bad, or worse than ISIS! And take that evil half-breed shit of a POTUs in the White Mosque with you on your journey to Hell!

Well, since Washington owned slaves, I think all blacks named Washington should change their names first. Then we can talk about Ft. Bragg.

Your California centric posts bring out
the Cali hating, mouth breathing, nose
picking bed wetters who post as if they
think all of us Californians are libtards.
This thread is no exception.

Stupid liberal stuff happens all over the
country, not only in California. Of course
you can post whatever you want but how about
a little diversification now and then?
