Liberals Angry After California City Renames Street as ‘Charlie Kirk Way’
“Are you effing kidding me?”
The city of Westminster, California, has renamed one of its streets as ‘Charlie Kirk Way’ in honor of the late free speech activist and founder of Turning Point USA.
The move is supported by the mayor and was approved by the city council in a four-to-one vote, but some liberal residents are not happy about it, which should come as a surprise to no one.

‘Are you effing kidding me?’: California residents react to street being renamed after Charlie Kirk
Liberal residents of Orange County, California, expressed anger after a street was renamed after slain conservative activist Charlie Kirk.
Street signs bearing Kirk’s name appeared in Westminster on the road leading to City Hall this week. Portions of All American Way were redesignated as Charlie Kirk Way after the City Council approved the idea last fall.
Kirk, a free speech advocate and founder of Turning Point USA, was killed while speaking at Utah Valley University during a TPUSA campus tour in September 2025.
The name change left some Southern California locals fuming, according to Los Angeles news outlet ABC7.
“I think that’s so hateful,” Los Angeles resident Ashley Lawrence said in the report.
“I thought it was a joke,” said Ann Galvan from Garden Grove.
“Are you effing kidding me? Sorry, that was my gut reaction,” Westminster resident Terry Rains also said.
I don’t know why this is such a problem. I seem to remember liberals happily renaming things for George Floyd a few years ago.
More from ABC 7 in Los Angeles:
The signs are now getting mixed reactions from those who want to honor Kirk, and those divided by his conservative activism.
Westminster Mayor Chi Charlie Nguyen proudly stood under the city’s newest street sign on Tuesday — Charlie Kirk Way. He says the renaming was his idea.
“By doing this, we promote the freedom, the freedom of speech, freedom for everyone to engage in open communication here in the city of Westminster,” Nguyen said.
Nguyen says the idea to redesignate the street leading to the city’s Civic Center from All American Way to Charlie Kirk Way was his idea, and it passed in a 4-1 council vote last fall…
“I myself am very inspired by what Charlie Kirk has been doing for the country, what he’s been doing to the younger people, for the next generation,” Nguyen said.

Technically, the name of the road has not changed. The All American Way remains the official legal name for the road, and “Charlie Kirk Way” is considered an honorary or ceremonial designation. And so, since the official name has not changed, residential and business addresses on the street remain the same, and the new name will not appear on any official maps. Big deal.
So… is Avenue of the Americas still Seventh Avenue?
Milhouse?
Is Ursus Arctos Horribilis still Gentle?
Gentle but not gentile.

It’s good to know you’re not a Gentile Bear.

I have heard that black bears and grizzly bears do not mate in the wild, although it is biologically possible. Must be a cultural thing.
On the other hand, Grizzlies and Polars are more closely related and produce fertile “Pizzlys or “Grolars” in the wild.

Grolar: Father’s a Grizzly, mother’s a Polar
Sixth Avenue, not Seventh Avenue! See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sixth_Avenue
Shows what I know…
Sixth.
So I have been led to understand.
Sixth Avenue. I can’t give it away on Seventh Avenue.
Since the actual postage addresses have not changed, this deflates objections based upon new addresses. No one will need to replace stationary, change signs, websites, etc.
No one needs to put Charlie’s name on anything.
As opposed, for example, to Arizona’s woke renaming of Squaw Peak to Piestewa Peak, which impacted dozens of longstanding businesses with “Squaw Peak” in their names.
Democrats are having a bad week. May it continue for years to come.
Not bad enough,
Ashley Ann and Terry. Likely all women. No surprise there. Hateful bitches. We’ve got to put up with zillions of things named after democrats and we live with it. So you have to as well. If not, your welcome to permanently leave the country,
Now they should paint the crosswalks red, white, and blue.
Use high quality product, so all the exploded brain matter hoses off cleanly.
lefty will cause more violence there than any street named after mlk
After all the streets and highways renamed after Martin Luther King, Ralph Abernathy, Fred Shuttlesworth, and others here in Alabama, I wonder what their reply would be if asked, “So what?” We seem to be living with the renamed streets quite well, although the names might be a hint of where to stay away from when the sun goes down.

And Harvey Milk . .
well come on
they do have a “Christmas” style holiday named after a psycopath who burned women with soldering irons
so they can at least give us this
In places that I’ve lived, any street named after MLK was an area you’d do well to stay away from after dark, and possibly during the day as well.
Just sayin’…
It’ll definitely give you a clue as to which side isn’t the nicer part of town.
Chris Rock once told a story about that. A friend calls “I’m lost on MLK Blvd. What should I do?” “RUN!!!”
Meh. Liberals don’t need a reason to be angry, they simply are, all the time.
And mind numbingly ignorant. Never forget that.
It’s their default setting.
George Floyd Way would definitely need a speed hump.
That would be a lot of fun. As you go over, you hold your breath and yell, “I can’t breathe!”
No more left. Used up all the humps on Harvey Weinstein Court..
Of late my posts to liberals on X are GFY and other solid advice for them.
Hard and often
Cesar Chavez Street replaced Army Street in San Francisco.
