Big waste of money. Growing up here, they were always called “50” and “29-211”.

I remember when Hwy 244 across North Tulsa was renamed Martin Luther King blvd with large signs at both ends.

Not long after I went that route and noticed the signs had been shot to pieces.

So they replaced the signs over supports overhead on the highway. Not so many bullet holes when you have to lean out your window to get a shot.

Following this “logic” all things named after MLK, the plagiarist, adulterer, and communist sympathizer should be renamed…in the name of equity…or something.

Is it true that all lakes in the commonwealth are man made? I heard that the other day.

Virginia has two natural lakes, which are Mountain Lake (near Newport) and Lake Drummond (in the Great Dismal Swamp).

I can’t wait until they want to rename Washington & Lee University to Route 1 & Route 29 University!

They missed the largest Lee memorial, his home in Arlington Cemetery. Why aren’t the calling for it to be razed? Oh, they don’t care thaaaat much.

Precisely. Democrats just trying to erase their history.

Hey, Rev MLK staged a million-plus march on Washington and he got away with it.

The commies in Arlington County already renamed W-L High School to “Washington Liberty”. Of course R. L. Lee High School in Springfield is no more.
