[quote=Anonymous]What are they going to change them to? There was the renaming of Jefferson Davis Highway in Alexandria and later Arlington to Richmond Highway, continuing its name into Fairfax. Then there is just more hate to settle scores and let people know who is really in charge. Examples include any renaming on the opposite spectrum of race (still race/racist based messaging), political figures and people with no connection to the region, etc. Streets renamed during particular periods such as the 1920s, 1950s and 1960s, should just revert back to what they were before. Anything newer than that should get a letter or number, and be tabled for 20 years, until people grow up and don’t instinctively want to commit the same crime.[/quote]
