Washington Gov. Jay Inslee (D) has signed into law legislation that bans the use of Native American names, symbols, and imagery as mascots, logos, or team names.

The bill, which passed through the Senate by a vote of 40-6 and passed in the House with a vote of 90-8 six days later, is set to take effect next year and considers such uses of Native American names to be “racially derogatory or discriminatory” and “antithetical to the mission of providing an equal education to all.”

Inslee has been quite for a long time and then does this. What a joke.

[sasquatch]

Does the ban include use by Native Americans?

[mrmeyer]

Blatantly unconstitutional

[rightwingintelligentsia]

Does this mean they have to change the names of cities like Seattle and Issaquah?

[Rurudyne]

There needs to be a pow-wow to strategize opposition.

[PGR88]

Next up, ban all Indians.

[volunbeer]

So much for the Spokane Chiefs and Spokane Indians hockey and basketball teams.

[Billthedrill]

You beat me to it. Exactly who was Seattle named after again?

[null and void]

Does thin mean all sequoias in Washington state must be clear cut?

[rktman]

Guess there will be a new batch of Bob and Jack out there. Why yes Virginia. These people really are THAT friggin’ stoopid. SMDH!

[null and void]

this

[rightwingintelligentsia]

A Squamish chief.

[Right Brother]

I didn’t know that the term “Chiefs” is sole property of Native Americans.

[Dead Dog]

Names like Seattle (Seahawks),Tacoma, Sequim, Puyallup, Isasuqua

Mister Milquetoast. Didn’t he run for president for a few weeks? I recall seeing him in the long line of presidential debators. He was very obviously there, but seemed to melt into the shadows like a cardboard cutout, with flashier personalities taking over the stage. Some people are just too introverted to successfully run for that office in today’s world.

[Secret Agent Man]

We must treat men as women, and women as men

We must wear masks that do not work but make people feel safe

We must tax and spend our way out of fiscal mismanagement, like so many other places have done throughout history

We must not refer to teams with indian names

We must not shoot violent criminals resisting arrest, especially when black

Math is now racist

Anything minorities don’t like, or don’t do well in, is racist

This is america 2021

Thanks libtards and compromisers

[standing man]

This idiot Inslee thinks he is king, has he never read the constitution. What a maroon

[Texas Eagle]

Uh-oh. Does that mean the cities of Seattle,Tacoma, Snohomish, Skycomish and others will have to change their names?

Well, technically, Seattle has alread de-Indianized its name. It is named after Chief Sealth so the name has always been whitened.

[volunbeer]

Their logo is an Indian and/or feathered headdress for both.

[Texas Eagle]

Good. I've always hated that stupid totem pole looking Seahawks logo.
