Yes, they decided to change their name for reasons of political correctness.
I seem to remember hearing that it had something to do with continuing
contributions from some of their sponsors, but I can't swear to it, since I
am not actually a member of this group.

Please tell me it's isn't so!!!!!!!! Have the political correctness nitwits
forced them to change their name?
Next they'll say that the Civil War was "police action". Every military
historian knows that it was fought over taxes, not slavery. Salvery was not
an "invention" of the southern states. Some of the northern land holders and
bigwigs had slaves also. And not all southern white landowners had slaves.
Political correctness is important when it relates to "politeness", but lets
not rewrite history.
Gun control, demilling, political correctness, affirmative action to achieve
quotas, giving illegal aliens the same rights as the rest of us, WHERE WILL
IT ALL END!!!!!!!!!!
(deep breath) --- I feel better now.
Let the flames begin.
