Everyone living there should go to the airport and yell “Remember the Alamo”, which would honor one of his great roles. Then defend the sign.

50 years ago, this didn’t raise an eyebrow.

Now the man is dead, it’s safe to attack him

Lefty cowards.

Meanwhile, Louisville just renamed its’ airport after a man who once called a black man a “Gorilla”.

"I shall never fight in the armed forces with a negro by my side ... Rather I should die a thousand times, and see Old Glory trampled in the dirt never to rise again, than to see this beloved land of ours become degraded by race mongrels, a throwback to the blackest specimen from the wilds."

— KKK Leader and Future Democrat Congressman and Senator Robert C. Byrd, in a letter to Sen. Theodore Bilbo (D-MS), 1944

There are 56 places named for Robert Byrd in West Virginia, so the name changers have their work cut out for them.

They want to take John Wayne’s name off of it because he is a symbol of “toxic masculinity”.

Bush, Trump, Christianity, marriage, - they can mess with them if they want.
But don’t mess around with John Wayne.

Well...

What Jussie Smollett did wasn't very smart, but I don't think that's what Wayne was referring to.

I don’t really think the Duke would want his name on an airport in the communist state of Cauliphonya anyway. Probably just as well they rename it the Barack Obama Airport Bong Shop and Adult Book Store.

The 1st Amendment says the government can’t punish us for things we say.

And now, what is our government considering doing?

So then, the procedure for liberal radical types is:

1. Dig and dig into old interviews or statements made by people who you dislike.

2. Use these decades old statements, made in a different time with different cultural norms, and proclaim that such person is racist sexist xenophobic homophobic etc.

3. Stir up outrage that someone many years ago did not have a 21st century politically correct conscience or worldview.

4. Proclaim that the reviled person is this unfit to have any public facility named in his honor.

5. Drum up support to change the name of any place named for the reviled person.

Is this really a major crisis? That an airport is named for John Wayne, and our liberal overlords complain that the minority population of Orange county, must of course be offended by such name?

Might as well, I’m sure The Duke would be ashamed to be associated with much of what society has become. He’d probably offer to shove his Oscars where the sun don’t shine too, except they’d enjoy it.

Wayne, who was 63 at the time of the interview, said he believed in "white supremacy until the blacks are educated to a point of responsibility."

Maybe someone needs to show the snowflakes the history of many African nations after the white leaders were thrown out of office (and if they were lucky, escaped with their lives) in favor of a litany of Black "leaders" who turned their countries into 4th World Hell Holes in no time.

If they do this then Spike Lee needs to be treated like the hatemonger he is...

Somebody better wake up and tell these people (all of them) to get !@#$ed. You do not rewrite history.
