FULL TITLE >> DC Residents Say Washington Needs To Change Name To ‘Black City,’ Tear Down Monuments Of Slave Owners [VIDEO]

CNN’s Don Lemon recently suggested that our nation’s capitol ought to “reconsider” the Jefferson Memorial, considering the fact that Thomas Jefferson was a slave owner.

Now, a video produced by Nicholas Ballasy shows that some Washington, D.C. residents — in the wake of the shooting at Emmanuel AME Church in Charleston and the racial debate it sparked — thinks our nation shouldn’t stop at the Jefferson, but go so far as redesigning the American flag and changing the name of our country’s capitol to “Black City.”

I’ve long thought we should have an exchange program with African countries. We get all their people who actually want to come here and appreciate what we have, while they get those who fit in much better to their hellholes.

“better yet, free passage back to afrika.”

Even if we built these fools every piece of infrastructure and the means to be a wealthy nation and handed it over, we already know what would happen.

See South Africa

And I’ll bet our entitled Detrioters can do it much faster...

Sure, why not?

From a group that changes how they identify themselves every decade or so.

S*** gets old, real old.
