Does it really matter if they change their name, probably not. People will still fly in and out of it. I think you are missing the point here. How many things and names are we going to change to make everyone happy. I am not so young anymore and in my lifetime I don’t know anyone who has actually been a slave. How far back are we going to go to rewrite history. The beginning of time! Taking down statues and changing names of everything under the sun is helping no one. If anything, it’s creating a divide. America must be the joke of all those countries who would love to see us fail. I can just hear them now sitting around their Presidential meeting laughing at us saying do you really need to worry about America, not anymore. They are destroying themselves from within and need no help from outside sources. God bless America!
