Wonder what they think about Robert Bird?
Byrd?
Turnabout, fair play and all that.
Over 56 things in West Virginia are named after Robert Byrd, Klan member.
They must all be changed today.
Democrat and a clansman. What will the left do?
Harry Truman was also a member of the Klan. However during that period, the KKK was nothing like it is today.
The fact that Truman was a member is so well covered up that it is hard to find now.
Why hasn’t Trump called the Libs on Byrd and all his stuff in WV? Byrd Highway, statue, buildings, I77 is littered with Byrd signs.
It’s going to get confusing when we and up with every street, road, avenue, alley, lane, highway....named Martin Luther King.
I think that might be the only thing acceptable to them.
And Sen Byrd too. Nothing should be named after Democrats.
I’m pushing for the Democrat Party to be renamed the Klansman, because it more correctly represents history.
“He kickstarted a campaign to sway city officials into renaming the roadways to honor former President Barack Obama.”
A leader of the political party that championed slavery, segregation and racial supremacy. How is that better?
Or Barack Obama Boulevard.
Most of West Virginia is named after Bird. I’m okay with changing the names. How about Mockingbird Highway or Lady Bird Lane?
So he wants to name them for a Radical Islamic Terrorist sympathizer/enabler instead? Alrighty then!
Tucker Carlson asked some Dim spokeshole about this last night. She had no answer.
Yes, and Black Americans, Hispanics, everyone, whites, should be insulted to have a freeway named after Barack Obama, who did so much to damage race relations during his presidency.
I wish President Trump would have mentioned Byrd when he was asking if Washington & Jefferson statues should be torn down.
Maybe we should just go back to streets being called by number or letter ... 1st, Ave A., Main. Or maybe state landmarks. Anything but people’s names. That way no one will get their feelings hurt.
Funny how democrats and their paid shills in the MSM kept Robert Byrd’s KKK ‘secret’ from the democrat black base all these years...
As far as renaming the many ‘Byrd’ things - easy. Vote on it. The people in those cities and States should have a say. It’s a free country...FREE for liberal elites AND FREE for us. They have a voice. We have a voice.
You know that pisses the elites off but it’s not a liberal elite totalitarian hellhole yet.
Like Obamanation is any better?
