Dallas Hispanics Upset City Won’t Name Street ‘Cesar Chavez’

As some may or may not know, Dallas is working to improve its industrial section along the Trinity River. It’s called the Trinity River revitilization project and it’s costing about 2 billion dollars. If you’ve never saw it in the past, you didn’t miss anything. It was (mostly still “is”) a dirty little section of town full of industrail/commerical businesses. The same kind you’ll find in any city the size of Dallas.
Some time ago, Dallas did a survey and asked what the street currently named ‘Industrial Blvd’ should be renamed to.
The local Hispanics wanted it named to Cesar Chavez Avenue.
Quite understandably, the Dallas City Officials said “Ummm…No”.
Once again, the Hispanics are up in arms over some wrong they believe has been done to them. Personally, if you really want a street name ‘Cesar Chavez Avenue’, you should just pick one of those litty dirty streets in anyone of those little dirty Mexico border towns, throw up a piece of scrap plywood and spray paint ‘Cesar Chavez Avenue’ on it. That’s about what the name is worth.
I don’t blame Dallas city officials not wanting to put some crap like that on a city street. Especially in an industrial section of town where you’re working hard and spending taxpayer money to improve its image to bring in more business.
The Hispanics have started a task force called the Cesar Chavez Task Force. It’s leader, Alberto Ruiz said this about the City’s decision
“If the results would have come back for Stevie Ray Vaughan, it would have gone through,”
Well DUH! Hell yeah!
I’m sorry, but if I spend 2 BILLION dollars to clean up a crap hole, then I wouldn’t want a crap hole name on it either. It looks like the Dallas city officials have made good on this decision about renaming this street along the Trinity River revitilaztion project, now lets see if they cave like spindless jelly fish!
