Shouldn’t they add that public places can’t be named after Nazis either? Just to be on the safe side?
To: bob_denard
LOL. Has ANYONE in California suggested naming anything after a Confederate leader?
I guess if they pass this law it means they are okay with naming things after Nazi leaders or bad guys ifrom Star Wars.

I know there are OLD things named after Confederates, I just don’t see it happening anymore. I don’t see anything that indicates that school is named after Robert E. Lee.

This a$$hole is my Senator. No one from the GOP would run this last election, and the State GOP actually recommended a vote for him because the other POS was a union goonette. This serves to once again show how far this once great state has fallen. I mean who in hell here would have any reason to put the name of anyone from the Confederacy on anything here? It’s not like California has any real connection to the Civil War and/or the Confederacy Give us a few more years and everything will be named after illegal aliens.

I lived a few blocks away from that school while in college. Went back to the website and it appears they are downplaying their namesake.
Here is a pic of the school entrance:

Wow, they sanitized the web site. I’m surprised they didn’t paint the name over.

Other than George Patton, grandson and grandnephew of Confederate officers.
