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.”

Ironically, there are more blacks with the last name of Washington than all other races combined.

While they are at it, change the name of NYC.

Saw a bumper sticker the other day, that said:

Had we known then what we know now, we would have picked our own cotton.

Rename it to Mombasa, D.C.

Appropriate for the city for obvious reasons. Change the team name to the Washington Swahilis. And Obama can rest easy knowing he can release his paperwork with relief.

Three birds. One stone.

Washington D.C. is a federal district, so how are these people allowed to reside there? Can I move into a National Park and set up house?

How do they even allow an idiot like this to be a newscaster?

Before Nagin there was DC Mayor Marion Barry who called it Hershey City and soon auto tag frames had that inscribed all over town.
