The National Park Service announced last week that Yellowstone National Park's Mount Doane would be renamed First Peoples Mountain.

Someone is going to have to explain this to me. I understand renaming Squaw Peak and Ni&&er Mountain.

Googled - it looks like Novartis got fined in 1999 over claimes it made for Doan’s pills.

I’ll just go by not reading the article and just reading the headline and refer to it as “Old Name Offensive”

Is there a traditional name from local tribe?

Doane?? Who the heck is that?? Never mind....he fought Indians. That’s almost as bad as disagreeing with so called trans people.

The Obama administration renamed Mt. McKinley a few years ago. Expect other geographical features to be renamed.

They could have named it “Mount Blood Thirsty Savages”.
Very appropriate.

Hey, they're not the only ones who could play that game. Might be fun to rename every swamp in the country after a famous D@mocrat, starting with Barack Herostratus Obama...
