Most of us locals will always call it that, and not Salweegan Reef or something like that as it's new name. What's next High Island because it offends someone or Browns Reef. This is getting ridiculous. How about Five Foot Rock because it will offend people of shorter statue.

Enough is enough. If you don't like it, there's plenty of other countries out there. Pick one.

Grew up fishing the area but what it was called back then would have probably been more offensive.
I'm sure you can figure it out.
