They been trying to change it for years

Funny enough the initials for the airport (SNA) is supposed to stand for Santa Ana Airport.

On a somewhat unrelated note, that airport has a ridiculously short runway, so if the flight was a long way away, it meant the plane needed to carry more gas. More gas = more weight = longer takeoff roll. Sometimes we had to kick off passengers to lighten the load to make the flight legal.

I used to have a picture of myself with the big John Wayne statue there while I was wearing my John Wayne Was a Nazi shirt.

At a party in 1957, Wayne confronted actor Kirk Douglas about the latter's decision to play the role of Vincent van Gogh in the film Lust for Life, saying: "Christ, Kirk, how can you play a part like that? There's so goddamn few of us left. We got to play strong, tough characters. Not these weak queers."

In 2016 Republican assemblyman Matthew Harper proposed marking May 26 as "John Wayne Day" in California.[112] This resolution was struck down by a vote of 35 to 20, due to Wayne's views on race and his support of controversial organizations such as the John Birch Society and the House Un-American Activities Committee.

John Ford went to Europe to film World War II for the U.S. government.

He had seen so much death and destruction, it really affected him mentally. He had PTSD and developed a short temper for things.

When filming some movie with long time collaborator John Wayne, Ford got so upset he basically called Wayne a pussy for not serving his country in uniform.

Ford eventually apologized to him but I love that story.

I have been reading some of the stuff he has said, it's kind of crazy he was still celebrated like he was. I mean yeah during his life I can understand, but I've never heard that much backlash during my adult life. He was celebrated for a long time.

He infamously said, I believe in white supremacy until the blacks are educated to a point of responsibility. I dont believe in giving authority and positions of leadership and judgment to irresponsible people.
He later said that although he didnt condone slavery, I dont feel guilty about the fact that five or 10 generations ago these people were slaves.

I was looking for actual racist things he said and I didnt have to look very long.

Play strong tough characters - Live to be 72, have airport named after them, renamed to citrus fruit because he was a stupid racist, everyone thinks his face is funny now and lol Green Berets movie
Play "weak queers" - Live to be 103, was Spartacus, invented Itchy and Scratchy. eternal badass legend

Lady Gaga has been doing questionable things for quite a while now.

Her "Fashion" song is also a call for fascism.

Which is funny, considering how we routinely give power and responsibility to irresponsible people.
