Another offensive name to be changed. This time it's a fish

Quote:
The term “Asian carp” has become endangered in Minnesota.

The state Senate on Monday approved a measure that would rename the fish “invasive carp.” It’s a response to concern by some people that the current term casts people from Asian cultures in a negative light.

Senators added the proposal to a larger bill that governs Minnesota natural-resource use. That legislation returns to the House, where it passed earlier this month without the name change.

Champlin Democrat John Hoffman said on the Senate floor that referring to the fish as “Asian” was hurtful to some people.

Officials have been trying to block the non-native fish’s progress into Mississippi River and Great Lakes ecosystems.

Asian is now a slur.

Just making sure which political party is always behind this stupidity. Of course, anyone with a brain should know who it is.

There's plenty of stupid to go around. It's not restricted to just one political party. Senator McCain is clear proof of that.

I want to know how describing the geographic location of origin of a species becomes racist?

What is next Persian cats? Italian Greyhounds? European rats? Are those all racist?

Dumbest ****ing thing ive read today. I could see a point if it was an american fish. Nicknamed the asian carp because of its eyes or something.. even then still... but these fish were imported from asia from my understanding
