If you donate land to a school district, and your name is Patrick Lynch, it could be considered racist. No word yet if Loretta or Marshawn Lynch donated land and a school or building has their last name used would be a bad thing. Double standard? hmmm.

Yes, no doubt that we need His help!

However, it may be too late and He has given up on this nation which was founded on His principles, and has continued for the last few decades to throw Him out of the country.

To quote one of His many prophecies: "If you again turn away from me, I will take away the blessings I have bestowed on you even faster than I gave them to you!"

Loosely quoted, from memory.

Portland, Oregon has gone past liberal into bat-stuff crazy. Unfortunately, they outvote the rest of the state combined.

"will be known temporarily as Wood Elementary"

So, no one finds the sexual connotation offensive?

Either give the land (and any improvements) back to the donor, or pay him fair market (present) value of the land.

Any suggestions for Washington and Lee University? We have a local school, Jefferson Davis Elementary. I believe they use numbers in NYC.

I've got an easy and cheap way to bring back some of the poorer, run down neighborhoods in our inner cities.

All the Martin Luther King streets, drives, and avenues should all be renamed to Penny Lane or some harmless name. Roll Eyes

I have a good friend from high school whose first name is Lynch. It's a family name, so he's Lynch III, and his son is Lynch IV.
