Text 3 May Little Saigon SF

So one of the places we stopped by during our scavenger hunt was LITTLE SAIGON.
at the sign entrance, i see words engraved and “little saigon” but someone crossed it out and wrote ” HO CHI CITY” im guessing someone favoring the communism side of north vietnam but WHO DOES THAT NOW?! im so surprised that someone in AMERICA actually did that. what if its someone from vietnam maybe?. i found this very offensive to what my parents have went through to get to this country and why they did it. why vietnamese people became refugees to escape the world of communism and the northern vietnamese government. its titled little SAIGON because the majority of vietnamese americans and vietnamese people in american now all lost their land and they still rep the old vietnam flag and call the city saigon rather than ho chi minh.
