streets in Shenandoah named for civil war battles

Anyone ever noticed that many streets in Shenandoah are named for Civil War battles? Chickamauga Avenue, Bull Run Drive, Kennesaw Drive, ect. There's also a General Forrest Ave... the whole thing seems confederate themed, I guess makes sense for a neighborhood developed in suburbs during desegeration.

Why would they demand they get renamed?

A Puritan impulse to remove any vestige of someone or something that does not conform to their interpretation of the modern world.

He better change LSU's mascot while he's at it

Let’s rename them to Obama Road, Malcolm X Lane, Louis Farrakhan Drive, etc.

You leave out Appomattox, Vicksburg, Antietem and Gettysburg.

Maybe. Fighting Tigers is definitely racist though. We'll be the Kingfish in 30 years.
