Boneless Wings! Make the Words Illegal? Is this America's Best Chance at Getting a Win in 2020?

from The Best Paragraph I've Read... · host Zac & Don

The Best Paragraph I've Read: During the public comment period of the Lincoln City Council meeting on Aug. 31, Ander Christensen stood at the lectern and dared to speak truth to power... ... ... “We have been casually ignoring a problem that has gotten so out of control that our children are throwing around names and words without even understanding their true meaning, treating things as though they’re normal... ... ...  I go into nice family restaurants and I see people throwing this name around and pretending as though everything is just fine. I’m talking about boneless chicken wings. I propose that we as a city remove the the name ‘boneless wings’ from our menus and from our hearts.” This paragraph comes from the Washington Post.  The article is titled: "Nebraska man says ‘boneless wings’ are blasphemy and the time for change is now."  The article is written by Tim Carman.   https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/voraciously/wp/2020/09/04/nebraska-man-says-boneless-wings-are-blasphemy-and-the-time-for-change-is-now/ Zac and Don discuss if boneless wings should be called something different.  They also discuss whether making such a change would give American society a win that they could build on.
