From Wikipedia: " it is possible that the area was called "Buffalo" as a result of French fur traders and American Indians having called the creek "Beau Fleuve," or "Beautiful River," in French"
Dear Mark Beasley,
I'd tell you to stick your petition up your ass, but your head is already filling that particular orifice.
Sincerely
N. Mountain
lol
Given how much “global warming” is caused by flatulent cows, isn’t this short-sighted of him to decry the mass extermination of buffalo?
Our predecessors were wise to take the beasts out by the millions. Think of how much colder this winter blast would be if they were still around!
Some descendant of Kit Carson needs to have a heart to heart with this idiot.
If we change the city name to “Bi-son” then we can be all excited about being so inclusive and accepting of bi animals and rejecting the hetero-normative models for those creatures. Ooh, hugs all around!
One Peyote button over the line, sweet Jesus, one button over the line. Sittin’ down deep in my mom’s dank basement, one button over the line.
Hey, Mark Beasley, your ancestors came from Asia.
Humans are not native to the Americas. It was white liberals who coined the inaccurate term “native Americans.”
Now go back to your reservation and STFU.
You bet there are, but New York was especially VOCAL regarding the Washington Redskins NAME, I would bet that the owner of that team has a hand in this, and for that reason alone I am ALL FOR IT!
FORCE LIBERALS TO LIVE UNDER THEIR RULES
I would like to visit Bison, NY, on the shore of Lake Spooky (just in case someone might be offended by the name Erie.
Dear Mr. Beasley:
F*ck off.
Thanks.
(not gonna happen)
Mark of the Beasley
Yeah, maybe we could call it Obamaville or Baraktown.
I would bet you that if you asked a “real native American Indian” to sit down and provide new names for, say a hundred new towns, the majority of the names he comes up with will be “native American” names or at least references.
I’d love to get a list a so-called Indian casinos and see how they are named.
O guess we could rename Buffalo as MASTODON NY.
That is an animal the Indians destroyed before the White Man came.
Same for the HORSE and many other species.
Besides, Bison were not native to the Navajo area of Arizona.
I grew up in Yakima, WA. Live near Seattle. Oops!
Not basement, HOGAN!
I’m always confusing the buffalo with the Injun.
