As a life long Cowboys fan. I'm loving every moment of this. But I still think it's stupid PC nonsense,

Lots of good examples of USPTO inconsistency in that essay. FWIW, "heroin" was a trademark registered to AG Bayer, as was "aspirin." Both words came to be used generically. "Xerox" was a common generic version of "to photocopy" too.

Finding USPTO inconsistency is the tip of the iceberg. The federal courts deserve scorn and ridicule for their massive number of political and social engineering decisions, which tend to be logically disconnected as well as detached from or contrary to precedent.

Government cannot prevent people from being offended. The world offends.

It is not the role of government to attempt this.

This is not about whether or not someone is offended by something - remember - EVERYONE will be offended by SOMETHING. The world offends.

Do not allow the discussion to be about whether or not someone is offended - that’s not the issue AND that’s an automatic losing argument. That’s why they set it up that way.

The discussion is whether the Fed Gov should be trying to use force to prevent us from being offended. Do you want this government to have that power? They want the gov’t to have the power.

But that’s preposterous b/c just them doing this offends me. So why is it allowed? B/C the policies will be enforced according to political lines. Just like everything in this regime.

We do have two parties;
- the government party [made up of a left and a right]
- a TEA party [made up of non-government.]

...”MSNBC anchor Joy-Ann Reid reported this news with an obscenity warning before airing a clip of Sen. Harry Reid: “And I just warn people, he does use the name of the team. So, I’m just going to warn you guys about that in advance.” She’s not alone. Liberal sports writers refuse to type the word in their columns”...

This is just one of the many signs of a media in severe decline and a nation going down.

This attack on the Redskins is nothing new.

The same group types/mentalities were all bent out of shape several years ago with a variety of community names they deemed offensive. They were demanding the offending communities change their names and that the map companies reprint all of the maps.

These group types/mentalities make careers out of finding something to be offended at.

If/when they succeed in getting the Redskins name changed, they will go on to some other company or product or community or similar name to be offended by. Notice that these demands for change always come from as few as ONE complaint.

What? Tell me that is a joke.
Goodness, I knew liberals were mentally disabled but that bunch of PC crap just takes the cake.
