Columnist Michael Hiltzik argued last week that perhaps Wayne represents a bygone era. “Orange County today is such an economically and ethnically diverse community that it’s hard to justify asking any member of that community to board planes at an airport named after an outspoken racist and homophobe, with his strutting statue occupying a central niche in front of the concourse,” Hiltzik wrote in a Los Angeles Times opinion piece.

Erasing history is what socialist totalitarians do.

Interesting that a certain group is always the vanguard of scrubbing things they deem “offensive”

But I was told they'd stop after the Confederate statues came down.

I'm sure this John Wayne statue will be the last thing they want erased though... Right?

Like the great John Wayne once said:

"Life is tough, but it's tougher when you're stupid."

It I was told by the media that what you did in the past doesn’t matter and that you can learn from it, just like the governor, Lt. Governor, and 3rd in command from Virginia did, despite wearing racist stuff in the 80’s as opposed to the 60’s

If you give leftists an inch, they'll take a mile. I knew it was a mistake to let them take down the confederate monuments. They've learned they can win if they complain enough.

You think this will end with John Wayne?

Wait for "slave owner" George Washington. It's coming.

I hope one day America wakes up and says "enough of the tyranny of the minority."

It’s named after a guy who moved to Orange County specifically so he could have all white neighbors, so whatever.

The “erasing history” shite doesn’t fly (pardon the pun). Things have always gotten renamed. It doesn’t erase anything.

And these are the same people who said we were overreacting to Kathy Griffin holding a severed head.
