  3. Doesn’t anyone else sell beer, maybe a Scottish brewer? Tell the racist English to go eff themselves. Bitch is an archaic term? Ask any dog owner.

  4. Well, if a black dog is offensive, perhaps they should switch to a cute, frightened kitten. I propose they rename the pub “Timid Little Pussy.” It seems fitting.

  6. Geeze … first The Stones have to cancel ‘Brown Sugar’ … and now ‘The Black Bitch’ bites the dust.

    Woke means shrinking the vocabulary to no Bad Words … oh! And eliminating math, cause that’s too damn hard – for the black bitches.

  7. A black female dog is racist. Dogs aren’t racist as far I know. I did however read a novel about a dog that was indeed trained to attack those of a particular genetic persuasion. I think it was called White Dog, maybe someone else might be familiar with it. It was long ago and I no longer remember who wrote it. I know , I know , I have a computer. And yes I did look it up. Hard to believe that was that long ago.

    1. Yes, it was made into a movie, starring Kristy McNicol, in the days when she was seriously gorgeous. Can’t tell you if the movie’s any good, I only had eyes for her.

  8. This is a long running issue in the UK. Local pubs being bought by big breweries and turned into cookie cutter “traditional pubs”.
    I can’t see the folks winning this. The brewery bought and owns it they can do as they please.
    Of course, if the folks in town are that upset they could just shun the place until it goes bankrupt. The brewery sells it on and if someone wanted to buy it and change the name back …..

  9. I’m waiting for activists attacking grocery stores in Saskatchewan for labeling homogenizated milk as homo milk

  11. which word is racist?

    the town should have the signage, when entering the town,

    to show the pride

    (can I say pride?) that

    You Are Now Entering The Town Of The Black Bitch

    with a small outhouse near the sign

    pointing to the safe space (a 2holer)

    and a traffic circle, where the eternally offended

    can turn around

    and get dafuc back to their inoffensive world

  13. Maybe the Scots should adopt that age old cultural slogan “Leave us the hell alone or else!” If the “or else!” is translated into “we won’t be drinking any of your product throughout Scotland” then the name “The Black Bitch” will remain. If you take offense at history, any history then you denigrate every faucet of mankind. These history changers should all be pilloried and hoisted on their own petards. We have seen this growing challenge to history all over Western society. The changers backed off their history changing program when the Holocaust Deniers were slapped down, the problem was they only backed down. They have since then incrementally slipped back into their program taking down statues to Sherman, Columbus, Roosevelt, Jefferson, MacDonald, and countless others and no-one has so much as raised an eyebrow to these actions, much less told the changers to p*ss off. The Black Bitch should be the last straw for what has been their goal from the beginning. Remove the visible links to history and you will surely destroy a society. If they succeed in renaming The Black Bitch what is next The Four Marys just down the road? Then it will be onto The George, another historic pub in Norton St. Philips, then The Lord Crewe Arms in Blanchland, or maybe The Guy Fawkes in York if they are not stopped somewhere, if we keep allowing the denigration of local and national histories to occur we will be immersed in a global cesspit with no inspiration or ability to rise above it. First the statues then the statutes, mission accomplished, nothing to fall back on nothing to look up to, perhaps the bars and pubs of Britain will be the rallying cry to stop this march to globalism. It is well past time to tell them to take their supposed outrage and stuff it where the sun doesn’t shine.

    1. Release an independently made, “commemorative”, high-strength beer of the same name and picture of the pub and the story printed on the label.

      And the eponymous cast metal pooch should go into hiding until this is over.

  15. Why is the name racist? WTF is going on? Is the word black racist now? F*ck that, unless bitch is a euphemism for n*gger (nagger) I just don’t get it. One bitch, two bitch, white bitch, blue bitch.

  16. A dear friend in Linlithgow comments
    “Re: the Black Bitch we also have a gorgeous statue of the dog (called the black bitch of course) further down the high street of the town. I reckon that ‘locals’ will just take the statue and put it right beside the front door of the new name. The tiny pub is famous for its wonderful music jam sessions. I really don’t think (hope) that the idiots will actually manage to change the name because apart from the lovely dog statue – the locals might just take down the new signage in the dark of night. In short the Black Bitch is part of Linlithgow history, as much as our palace and our loch. Don’t worry we will fight for it ! x x x

  17. “White Rabbit”?
    Or is that too soon.
    For we are a long way down that rabbithole..
    And still falling.

    Our ancestors had the most interesting ideas,one of which was “The Stocks”.
    Into which public scolds and nuisances were inserted,in the hope of teaching them better behaviour.
    Rotten fruit,vegetables provided as side dish..
    If they would not learn,Banishment would follow.
    With the death penalty for unapproved return..

    Strangely we have abandoned these fine tools.
    How is that working out for you?

    Seems the only rational response to “I am offended”.
    Is “Good”
    “F… U”.
    Followed by further “cause for offence” until the tender wee thing scuttles back into its cave..
    I mean safe place…

  22. Maybe someone thought the name was an insult to a certain high-level American politician…..

  23. Many old pubs in Britain have names that could trigger snowflakes, for example:

    The Old Trip to Jerusalem in Nottingham, supposedly dating to 1189. It claims to be the starting point for the third Crusade, which would no doubt trigger the Religion of Permanent Offence.
    (btw: it is The Old, not Ye Old – the latter being a modern invention, the ‘Y’ being a corruption of the letter Thorn https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ye_olde

    Another historic pub is the Fighting Cocks in St. Albans. Nice pub, but a bit touristy. Obviously militant vegans and Peta won’t like it.

    Then there is the Royal Standard of England in Beaconsfield – colonialism??

    Just a few to be going along with.

  26. And now they’ll be coming for The Frog and Nightgown. This is how cultures die with a croak. (Couldn’t resist.)
