We’ve got a lot of “redskins” here in Oklahoma ...
Is that Seattle paper not going to use “Oklahoma” anymore in print?
Oklahoma’s state’s name is derived from the Choctaw words okla and humma, meaning “red people”!

Will they force the Saints to change their name, because it’s offensive to Non-Catholics?

I understand that they were going to rename the team “Washington Foreskins”, but didn’t want to confuse the team with Congress and some federal agencies.

Between 1958 and 1961 Communist China had a “great leap forward” where the ruling class attempted to change thousands of years of culture. It failed, but only after millions died.
I believe we are currently living our own “great leap forward”. In the end, this will also fail, the only question is how many Americans die before the left is forced to back down?

Perhaps Mr. Snyder should change the name of the team to the D.C. Fascists and put a profile of Harry Reid on one side of the Helmet and Obama on the other.

Redhawks?! That's a .44 magnum revolver. Boycott them for promoting gun violence!

So nothing else matters. The girls in nigeria. The buildup of power by al quaeda and other bearded savages. The economy in the toilet. The irs being used against the people.
The only thing that matters in the post-civilized USA is the symbolism of the name of a team.

They find no irony in banning the use of a word because it offends humans while supporting abortion.

I think they should be the Washington Redcoats. It’d be a poke in the politicians’ eye (who probably wouldn’t get it).

Harry Reid, to show his support for Native Americans will be changing his name to Sagging Horses Ass.
