If they succeed in taking down the Redskins, can the Kansas City Chiefs or the Golden State Warriors be far behind? and of course, the Florida State Seminoles..

“a sign of respect, not racism”
all the names are a sign of respect, its just that the Marxists wouldn’t want to admit it. no one wants to play for a team with a joke name. actually, was just thinking, the Marxists value “chris and steve, home decorators” over athletes, so they don’t realize how much pride they have in their teams.

Of course it’s racist.
The indian chief Black Hawk was delivered to Saint Louis by none other than Jefferson Davis who was (20 years) later the first President of the slave holding Confederacy!

When is the left going to stop disparaging the names of great American Indian warriors ..??
Blackhawk and Apache were great warrior nations. I can’t think of better names for such awesome helicopters.
It’s sickening that the left won’t honor these people.

How about North Dakota, South Dakota, Alabama, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, and Utah. All are the names of Indian tribes. There are many more that are Indian words, Ohio for example.

That’s right, and the Left is pissed because there are no teams like named:
Montana Marxists
Louisiana Leftists
Pennsylvania Progressives
Colorado Commies
Florida Fascists
