Poll: 90% of Native Americans not offended by Redskins name

[Cap'n Cat]

Um... not really
But you go ahead and believe that if it makes you feel better

I'm not talking about white guilt
I'm talking about the extermination of a group of peoples / we killed their best and brightest
It's a sad sad story

Think how much we could have learned from these people
Their top men were special

It would be kinda like killing the top 90% of White people
(as far as leadership and intelligence and physique)

Guess what you'd have left


If that's all we had to go on to determine the value of "white folks"
Imagine that

I said nothing about "value". But they get to stick it to the White man every time one enters any of the hundreds of Indian Casino's popping up across the nation. 460 casinos, operated by 240 different tribes, with estimated 2012 revenues of $27 billion.

To me, that qualifies as "the last laugh".

As a guy named Bill I'm personally offended at the Buffalo Bills. Their futility and ineptness as an organization have embarrassed hundreds of thousands of guys named Bill all over America & it must stop - NOW.

Just be happy your last name isn't Brown.

The only people really up in arms about this seem to be white journalists.

Cowboys- These folks stole land and killed indians
Giants- making fun of people with growth problems
Packers- really...you need me to explain
Raiders- promoting violence
Patriots- they don't represent me
Saints- religious views
Steelers- shouldn't promote theft
Texans- Goes along with Cowboys
Vikings- These people didn't allow them to use their name

"Bucanier's" were a bunch of stranded dudes on the isle of Hispaniola who lived off boar you insensitive fuck.

so true...

Um, actually not even close to true.

[SeattleGriz]

How about the Chicago Blackhawks and Atlanta Braves?


I understand that Redskin is offensive to them and Blackhawk and Brave aren't. I guess they aren't. Hell, I don't know.

I am fine with Atlanta Braves, but if it was Atlanta Wagonburners, then I would understand.

The only problem is you don't have the fucking right to not fucking be offended.

Charleston had a baseball team called the Rainbows. Gays found it offensive because the teams did nothing but suck.

True story.

His point about high school teams that use the name is interesting.

Not all names are offensive, for example: Niqqer is offensive, African-American is not. Not hard to see where Redskin is more offensive than Brave.

Huh?

I didn't mean you, but in general. People don't have the right to not be offended. Some people will be offended by most anything. They just have to deal with it.
