I expected this noise as soon as I heard the name of that bridge. The only thing most these protesters know about Francis Scott Key is that somebody told them he was White.
Based on that. Pavlov’s Dogs began to bark and howl.

My money is on Harriet Tubman Bridge b/c she had a connection to Baltimore and ticks off the right boxes.

More erasure of American history.

Jean-Luc-Pierre already renamed it at her bridge collapse press briefing.

She called it the “Francis Scott King Bridge”.

I am 100% in in renaming this bridge after a modern, meaningful black warrior.

The Saint Clarence Thomas Bridge

And every MLK Boulevard is a crime-ridden $hithole.

This is a good thing. If you are travelling to a city that is new to you, you now know where to buy your drugs.

There was absolutely no doubt this would happen, from day 1...

Plenty of deserving communists out there to get the honor...

I propose that if the bridge is renamed, it be after Frederick Hall ( or his alias William Williams)…an escaped MD slave that rejected British offers to slaves to revolt and turn against America as mercenaries and receive British freedom

hence Key’s anthem verse referencing the hirelings and slaves that fought with the British in the War of 1812…which is totally over the miniature IQs of the people that don’t or won’t grasp the historical fact of the mention of slaves in verse 3 of the anthem

Hall/Williams enlisted in the militia that fought at Ft McHenry and was mortally wounded in the battle that inspired the Star Spangled Banner. His role and legacy is scarcely known, and that he fought and died for American freedom while a slave

I'm OK with that. She was a Republican and a 2nd Amendment sister, so she ticks off the right boxes for mee too.
