Not to mention the states of Illinois (Illini), Utah (the Utes), the Dakotas. Then there is Indiana. And a whole batch with Indian names that are not tribes, like Missouri, Mississippi, Minnesota, Kentucky, Tennessee, Massachusetts, to name a few. Soon, the names will be al Mizuri, al-kentuck and al-missapee, after sharia law is implemented.
There is nothing racial about the name, its an animal for ct ting out liyd
As an "American of European Extraction", it is offensive to me that this Native American has insultingly appropriated two European names to which he has no claim.
Plenty of Europeans were butchered by Native Americans in the 19th century. Now he adds insult to injury by using this European name with clear contempt for my dead ancestors.

*chortle* and ha.
I suppose that buffalo could be considered 'native americans,' But then so could rattlesnakes.
Aren't redskins (Indians, native-americans, whatever name they use this week) generally known to be the major per-capita alcohol consumers?
For crying out loud. Stop with the political correctness.
Why is this drunk 'native American' ignoring the documented fact that when it was suppertime, the Indians themselves would drive an entire herd of buffalo over a cliff to get a few steaks?
"Good grief!" is right.
I thought some tribe was also angry at the US for landing on its moon ....
Well, Caucasus has a nice ring to it.
This kook clearly has too much time on his hands.
Ahhh... but Buffalo Bill was an indian killer and degraded Sitting Bull as a side show for financial gain. See how easy it is? To beat the terrorist you must learn to think like a terrorist. ;-)
Another victim group that uses past injustices to excuse present failings.
Indiana?
Indianapolis?
So these profesional indian winners want to basically erase all evidence that indians even exist by having any indian name removed from towns, places, or sports teams. Once that goal is accomplished, then they can complain that indians aren’t given recognition.
Nope ... I get the joke though ... it was some tribe all in a twist over the US landing on their sacred moon ...

The word Sioux used to describe the Lakota Indians is actually derogatory, so I expect that Sioux Falls, SD and Sioux City, IA and the Big Sioux River will all need new names.
They are bison, but buffalo do not have antlers. Deer & moose have antlers, both bison & buffalo have horns.
