Combine Juneteenth with the Fourth of July or with MLK day no more additional federal holidays and no two black holidays

ENOUGH

Disagree. Mark Steyn sees Juneteenth as being positioned by the radical left as the anti-4th of July and I agree. No need to give an inch to those folks.

Most companies by and large are doing away with holidays! There once were many religious holidays and now most of them are gone to hide the fact that we as a country were (and should still be be) based on Christian believes. That said, of the every few holidays the average Joe gets or even hears about any longer one is MLKjr birthday! So now WOKE whatevers want another foe juneteen? HAVE HAD ENOUGH AND YOU? But what the hell do I know! Appears these same cowards are also hell bent on changing a bunch of military base names too - *sshat!

Nobody, including you and MOST BLACK PEOPLE, had even heard of it until recently.

It’s not worthy of a holiday at all and yes it will replace Columbus Day

The thing nobody seems to realize is that if anyone should be celebrated for Juneteenth it is the white soldiers in Blue that brought Jubilo to the slaves.

No.

  1. The event is not important enough to merit a holiday.

  2. It will be seen as a major victory for Antifa/BLM if this passes.

  3. It's too close to Memorial Day and Independence Day,
