Washington and Lincoln are out. S.F. school board tosses 44 school names
Even Diane Feinstein got the boot.

https://www.sfchronicle.com/education/ar...900963.php

The names of presidents, conquistadors, authors and even a current U.S. senator will be removed from 44 San Francisco school sites after the city’s school board Tuesday deemed the iconic figures unworthy of the honor.

Critics called the process slapdash, with little to no input from historians and a lack of information on the basis for each recommendation. In one instance, the committee didn’t know whether Roosevelt Middle School was named after Theodore or Franklin Delano.

Maybe, due to the high population and numerous buildings, the West Coast will tip over into the Pacific.

This is stupd; however, going forward probably best to avoid naming anything after a person, living or dead. Eventually, some blowhard is going to be offended by whatever the name is if it's named after a person.

Its going to be worse than that VA. You won't be able to use any adjective - even a color. Nicknames and mascots are all but gone in the next 10 year too.


San Fran High School - I am sure the are many more than one of them so I can't wait to watch the complaining about who gets San Fran High School #1, #2 , etc....
San Fran Elementary
San Fran Preschool

The pansy's and butt-hurts are taking over the country.

The San Francisco School Board Debated Which Historical Figures To Remove From Commemoration In A Public Google Doc And The Results Of Their ‘Research’ Is As Funny As You Imagine…

Remember when, 4 years ago, conservatives said "next they will be going after washington and lincoln" and libs called us crazy. They are letting the progressives ruin their party at warp speed.
