"While I'm a believer in the traditional Southern view of states' rights, and believe that Mr. Dunshee has a right to move to change the name of the highway in his state," wrote Jeff Adams from Houston, "I don't think he should be so angry, intolerant and bigoted about it."

That's about all we can say about it unless a bunch of us moved to Washington.

Not quite. Those of us elsewhere, particularly those of us in the South, can also urge our legislators to vote against the funding of any project that requires tax dollars collected in our states to be spent in one that trashes history for the sake of political correctness and expediency. Not one cent should go to Washington state for museums, historical preservation or the arts if the Davis Highway markwer is removed or vandalized, and some strong thoughts might be made toward cutting their education funding as well.

If they don't care to be a part of recalling the history of the rest of the country, they should fund their own efforts to promote their own on their own.

Washington is full of Californians, and as we know, they have moved north to escape the Mexican invasion. So he's not voting to name it after Cesar Chavez/
