But I understand that now Sutter has been declared a big criminal and street names must be changed to appease the pc police.

My sister Dana and I were born at Sutter Maternity Hospital in Sacramento.

You were - uh oh! Wonder what it will be called now. I know that streets all around there (including Davis where I went to college) are having to change their names. Good thing I was born at Children's Hospital. So far, that is still allowed.

"John Sutter, despite being revered as the embodiment of Western individualism and entrepreneurial savvy--his discovery of gold kicked off the Gold Rush and the settlement of the West--is not a proper namesake for that street, say activists, who want the name changed."
