I hunted elk a few years ago in an area of Wyoming called “Crazy Woman Canyon”. I wonder how long that one will last?

Chinaman's Gulch in Colorado

I hereby volunteer the renaming of this to be, "Democrats Started The KKK Gulch."

Colorado ping.

There’s been controversy for sometime. In 1963 the federal government changed “N-word” place names to “Negro” place names, but they later blocked Texas state legislation that would have required further changes. Canada and Australia have also had “N-word” place names and changed them. In 1974, the federal government renamed “Jap” places “Japanese” places. “Chinaman” places are also liable to be changed now. It seems like a distraction from the real problems the country is facing now.

Ah, been there!

Don’t forget the ‘Tetons’ are misogynistic.

The left is effectively erasing everything that says, “Native Americans were here.”

Squaw Valley? What? Rename it Pretty Place?

Keep going. Mascots, named, places, erase them all.

By 2024, they will be back.

All this rewriting of history and giving everything a new name - it has happened before in basically the exact same way - in France in 1789. Those people were just as crazy as their modern equivalents. That movie ended badly just as this one will inevitably do. History is there for the taking - too bad society has been dumbed down so much so that it might as well not exist.


And perhaps not coincidentally Macron in France has explicitly stated that his policy is NOT to rewrite or expunge history. He’s said this repeatedly and very clearly and forcefully. He obviously gets it.

LOL! Or here in New York they have a town named Shirley, and they have a sign on the highway that says “You are now entering Shirley” lol lol. I always wondered if they have a Jewish Temple in that town as well, would it be called “The Shirley Temple”?

Yeah, renaming “racist” locations in federal parks is the #1 threat facing America. Moron-ism is a bigger plague in America than COVID. They spend time carefully combing over every aspect of life to find minutiae to complain about, while illegal criminal invaders swarm into the country, bringing diseases, terrorism, child trafficking, drugs, etc.

we are in the midst of a softer version of Mao’s cultural revolution. No guarantee that it will stay this soft. Either way it is hellish.

Please help! I don’t know if I should be offended by “Negro Bar” in the Folsom State Recreation Area here in CA. If you’re not a drooling leftist idiot, please consult one and let me know. Thanks

I’m even more distressed now that I realize that here in CA, there are THOUSANDS UPON THOUSANDS of cities, counties, streets, schools, and geographical features named after Catholic saints or theology (e.g., Sacramento = Holy Sacrament”) each and every one of these pays tribute to the oppression of indigenous peoples by the Spanish. All of them have to go. Right, leftist geniuses?

This is not merely stupid but will cost millions of dollars to change maps, and signs, and etc.

and Chinaman's Gulch in Colorado

Good, because we will need that name for the new America after the leftists and their RINO enablers get done with sucking it dry.
