While we are changing names, I have a few suggestions


Jan 19, 2015, 11:23 AM

Can we change the name Rhode Island? To this day, the official state name is the State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations. Really? How insensitive can they be?

How about Washington, DC (named after George Washington, of course)? He owned slaves.

How about the month of August (as in Caesar Augustus)? The Romans owned slaves.

How about Boko Haram? They own slaves as we speak.

Perhaps everything should just be numbers.....

August wasn't named after some lame European

It was named after my great great great great. . LOts more greats. . Grandmother Augusta Samantha Mich who would always have the best MATER sammiches around that time of year.

She also invented the entropy by the way. Never got credit.

Why don't the 80 students go somewhere else if the name is offensive ? Please don't give in to these people.

How about Sumter, named after Thomas Sumter the fighting Gamecock?
Also the name gamecocks should be banned.
