I am sick and *@*&’ing tired of all this *&*! BS! Our sister company back in Navy boot camp in 1962 consisted of 100% southerners. They and my company of northerners loved the competition and were always teasing each other which actually encouraged us to try to do better! Sadly, they won one more battalion flag than we did! Damn it, but there was never any animosity back then. We took the loss with dignity and they won with (mostly) grace without spite. Something went terribly wrong with this country since then and I do not like it.
Hip-Hop High School #5
James Fannin had a hand in Goliad during the Texas Revolution, so there is that.....
Then they need to also rename Houston and Austin since those names are offensive to Mexicans and while they’re at it they need to rename Texas to Tejas to make the Mexicans happy.
Or tell them to go to hell. That would work, too.
When these people open their mouths with this crap, they need to start missing a few teeth.
What a bunch of ignorant, racist and stupid Trustees.
I know W.W. well. Had the op back in the 80s. That or L.H. or AHS. Went to AHS.
No more schools named after any post political leaders, including MLK, either.
I am a very optimistic person. I have great faith in the good sense and decency of the vast majority of my fellow countrymen, and I believe that the eternal truths inherent in our founding principles and documents will always prevail.
But sometimes these days, I feel that I’m living in an alternate universe. Leftists dreaming of ideological utopia and trying to force their vision on everyone else always succeed in creating dystopia.
Of course, that Sam Houston, the anti-fa and their little weasels don’t care about history.
My wife and I often look at each other, shake our heads, and bewildered our great country has come to this. NEVER did we think we’d see such division and stupidity, especially by the media and career politicians.
But we now see what a big game the Deep Staters think this all is. From covering up the sins and lies of Presidential candidates to blaming others for everything. To defining “racism” et al as only capable of being committed by whites, the failure to appreciate and protect the Constitution.
As ones who’s ancestors fought and WON both World Wars, to see the sacrifices made by men, overwhelmingly WHITE men, going in vain is sickening. To see the Constitution perverted and a media that cheers it on (and doesn’t under the document to begin with), to the cowards who won’t call out black racism, et al and the divisive “leaders” who take advantage of them . . .
Shameful. The racism, the division, the hypocrisy, the hate, the stupidity, the ignorance, the immaturity, the mental illness, the brainwashing . . . who would have ever imagined we would come to this
Watch this, and feel better (do you think that cretins like this are capable of much more than a few minutes of self-congratulatory theater?):

The Stalinist eradication of our history continues.
An awful lot of black people would have to change their names, too, in order to remain faithful to this new ‘zeitgeist’.
(Will they try to change past names as well, like that of one of my personal, beloved heroes, George Washington Carver?)
