Slap in the Face to Texans Act

WHEREAS, in 2013 we named our cantons after prominent Maricopans, Talossans, and Cestours; and

WHEREAS, in 2014 we passed a bill to geographically define which Maricopans belonged to which canton; and

WHEREAS, one particular canton is currently named after an individual whose vile actions have recently came to light; and

WHEREAS, Maricopans who live in this individual's state are currently "assigned" to the province which bears his namesake; and

WHEREAS, this individual's heinous crimes render him undeserving of such a high honor; and

WHEREAS, this individual has already been removed from the Order of the Sovereign Province of Maricopa due to his actions; and

WHEREAS, it has also came to light that we never named a canton after the greatest songwriter of our time; so

THEREFORE, be it resolved that 44CL3 is hereby amended by striking all references to "Iustì Canun" and inserting the name "Barry Manilow", and

FURTHERMORE, be it resolved that 47CL1 is hereby amended by striking all references to "Iustì Canun" and inserting the name "Barry Manilow".

Për! (presuming I still have a vote and as I live in the Manilow canton)

[Iason Bitxichë Taiwos]

I can't vote on this, I guess, but as one who was raised in Texas and still regards it as his true home, I must argue against naming anything after Barry Manilow. If we're going for dudes who's albums you can find in every thrift shop in America, I think the great Herb Alpert is far more worthier of tribute than Manilow. Truthfully, Manilows music raises in me feelings of nausea not unlike the feelings I experienced when learning of Canuns' crimes. Iusti's crimes destroyed but a few lives; Manilows has adversely affected millions.

Iason, you don't see us running over to Benito and interjecting our opinions on your legislatin so please respect our legislative process and don't interject your opinions here. Thank you.
