The Berzerkley Marxist-Leninist school board may want to consider the name, Saddam Hussein High School. He didn't own slaves, hates America and only murdered people who got in the way of his socialist Baath Party.
Around where I live, a lot of buildings, roadways and schools were changed to King or Martin Luther King this or that after King's assassination in 1968. This included a few items that were originally named after Presidents.
Ok, so King was a great leader for his people, but he too had his flaws. It was alleged that the guy had more than a few mistresses.
So...why would one want to change the name of a building or whatever from one character-flawed hero to another?
