This is what happens when their is no moderation, they go to far, both sides do this, theirs is no common ground. The problem this time is Russia maybe the big winner.

If we are serious about this, it's time to change the names of New York and New York City. Both were named after the Duke of York, one of the worst slave traders in history. He was responsible for a high percentage of the slaves brought to America. One cannot be too woke. Let's get this done.

It is nothing more than a test to see how far the minority and special interest groups can push with no resistance.


The minority groups continue to gain with the support of politicians and the amplification provided by the media.

They are willing to pay the price of crippling America......as long as the silent majority vision goes no further than their own back yard.

I have to say I'm a little worried about the rapid spreading of the virus so close to home.

As far as the name changes going on around America, it doesn't seem to bother me at all.

I'm not sure why it doesn't bother me but maybe at some point it will? I guess I'll need to see harm it causes before I get upset.

We are no longer a country ruled by law, order and common sense. We are a country ruled by the whims and political agendas of activists of every category. The tail is wagging the dog big time.

If you have a southern accent you should voluntarily submit to speech reprogramming before you are forced to do so and the lines are long. After all, a southern accent reminds some of the South, which reminds them of the Confederacy, which reminds them of slavery, which indicates that you are a racist, and causes a micro-aggression. :-)

Well I guess it's time to burn our Eric Clapton records once and for all.

Once history is re-written and evidence of slavery is removed, what will the gripe be then? I guess the divide in getting there will remain.

Perhaps we should change New York to BLM. We cannot have too much idiocy now.

It will end when decent, rational people rise up and make it end! Sitting around wringing our hands and lamenting the problem isn’t going to do it.
