Apparantly hurricane names are too "Caucasian"

"Wordup, Muthas! Herr-i-cane Chamiqua be headin' fo' Galveston like Leroy on a crotch rocket! Bitch be a category fo'! So, turn off dem chitlin's, grab yo' chirren, leave yo crib, and head fo' de nearest FEMA office fo yo FREE shit!" <- LMAO!
 
Doesn't this come up at least once a year...every year? (not on AT, i mean in the "news")

I know i've seen a story on it in the past.
 
Not a lot of the african-american names today have any history though....they are pretty much made up...and I think everyone tries to out do the parents before them. It seems mostly the women have these funky names while the guys have more traditional ones.

 
Most black people I've ever made don't have any of those made-up sounding names, they just have "Caucasian" names. Ironically a lot of "Caucasian" names are actually Hebrew, and so-called "black" names like Jamal are actually Arabic.

Ya got to get a little closer to the ghetto. You usually have to go over to the government housing section to find Shaquanda's and Shaniqua's.

I grew up in a poor black area. Of course most of the black people around here are Haitian and they have French names or the like. I'm not saying I've never met people with names like that, I'm saying I'm willing to bet that black girls with names like that are a minority within their own community.
 
I'd crack up if I saw a hurricane named Leeroy.

But why just african american hurricane names? I want to see a hurricane Jose or Ahmed.
 
They can name them after fish, Greek gods or different types of grass for all I care. Honestly, who gives a fuck? Don't they have anything better to do in Congress?

Thank goodness there's nothing important for them to be working on.

Or how about about "Hurricane 1" and "Hurricane 2?" Nah, that'd be pandering to mathematicians, can't do that.
