Renaming Washington D.C. - Name of U.S. Capital is 'Racist' & 'offensive' - Not a Safe Space (Video)
YouTube ^ | November 16, 2015 | Mark Dice

Maybe rename it Columbia City, or District One? If you put it up to a NFL rental deal....Redskins might bid and name it Redskins City for a year.

Mark Dice doesn’t need to be giving anybody any ideas. I’d be surprised if it hadn’t been considered already.

Columbia, from Columbus can’t be accepted either.

We knew this was coming. The usual crowd will think it’s a joke. The surprise will be theirs.

These videos are hard to watch.

So much overt stupidity on display.

“In June 2008, Dice launched a campaign urging people to send letters and DVDs to troops stationed in Iraq, which supported the theory that the 9/11 attacks were an “inside job”.[20]”

This will be for real in the next few decades. There are enough low information voters out there to make it happen. After all, look who was elected president not once, but twice, in the last two presidential elections.

“On March 23, 2014, Dice’s YouTube channel, which had 55 million views, 265,000 subscriptions, and 3-5 million views a month, was shut down due to ‘severe terms of service violations’. YouTube restored the channel later that day after a wave of pressure came about from supporters of Dice.[23] As of July 2015 his channel has over 125 million views and more than 365,000 subscribers.[24]”

Already taken. About 40 miles to the north sits the realm of Baltimordor.

“”Operation Inform the Soldiers,” as Dice has called it, prompted syndicated talk show host Michael Reagan (son of former President Ronald Reagan) to comment that Dice should be found and killed for treason. Reagan said on June 10, 2008: “How about you take Mark Dice out and put him in the middle of a firing range. Tie him to a post, don’t blindfold him, let it rip and have some fun with Mark Dice.” Reagan added that he would pay for the bullets.

Dice launched an unsuccessful campaign attempting to have Reagan punished by his syndicator or the Federal Communications Commission. The progressive activist group Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting has since asked Reagan’s syndicator (Radio America) to explain whether it permits “its hosts to call for murder on the air.”

Funny how they get all uptight when somebody uses the 1st Am. in a way they don’t like, but they hide behind it every chance they get, such hypocrites.

Name it Obamaville.

And change the National Anthem to the same, sung to the tune of Jimmy Buffet's "Margaritaville", with a fitting lyrics change.

Giving out more free money to people who won’t work will surely solve this problem.

It was perfectly legal to own slaves back then, no matter how deplorable later generations see it.
Just as it's perfectly legal to employ servants now, no matter what future generations will say.
Or drive SUV's. If you get a school named after you, make sure you drive a Prius or you may become an Unperson.

Might as well rename it to New Mecca the way things are going.
