Default Orange County California now wants to change the name of the John Wayne airport

Are you friggin kidding me...John Wayne is a problem????

No friggin way!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow...this is the last BS straw for me...my camel's back has now been totally broken

How stupid and how far over the hill will some elected officials bend to make sure that they absolutely do not offend anyone at any time any where at any time...even if they are misinformed on reality

Well, guess what Orange County, you have just offended me! I OBJECT. Does, my
voice count...or am I just too damn white? Okay I could have my son who lives in Orange county object...will that matter??? No you've made up your mind that John Wayne must go.

Stupid, dumb, idiotic, cowardice.... you are running scared of what??? You cowards!!!!

If California drops off the edge from a earthquake...I no longer care....good bye

I know, it's ridiculous. He made a racist statement back when he was about 30.

To the locals it will always be John Wayne. It is the only airport of which I am aware that has three names, Santa Ana, Orange County and John Wayne. I love the John Wayne statue there.

Actually California does not want to change the name. A radical faction wants to change the name and has wanted to do so for a while. They are trying to take advantage of the current craziness and appeasement climate. They want to stick it to decent society while they can.

Changing history, wiping out anything that doesn’t fit the current political agenda, is exactly how Communism works. I can’t believe it came to the US. I wonder if their method of enforcement is next?

Well, he did have a dim view of Native Americans in The Searchers and definitely anti Mexican in The Alamo.

I think the name Orange County should be changed as well.
To all those people who use fake tan, and lay under sun lamps, it can be very offensive and demeaning, to see/hear the word Orange!
OPM!

Apparently John Wayne said he didn’t feel guilty about slavery; he made disparaging remarks about Native Americans and he also made homophobic remarks. Trying to establish a new US where discrimination has no place.

Brings back memories of Pol Pot's Khmer Rouge in Cambodia.

Our foreign enemies will conquer us without firing a shot. They gleefully watch America destroy itself from within.
