this is why it was wrong for the redskins ownership to give in on the team name.
once you show weakness the left will move to exploit in ways we've not considered.

Anyone still think these are just protests? Just wondering. If this is not a revolution, I am the stupidest person alive.

In other words, any team name that highlights perceived qualities of a particular group of people is to be eliminated. Can’t be praising Native Americans or intrepid Rangers for their brave qualities. Nope, that’s unfair, racist, something.

I’m all for changing the name of the Texas Rangers. As soon as they change the name for the NY Yankees.

Of course this sport—as an intramural—has been going on without push-back for decades at American universities.

Padres is offensive to single mothers. Angels is offensive to devil worshippers.
Braves is offensive to cowards
Yankees is offensive to southerners
Brewers is offensive to non-drinkers
Pirates is offensive to sailors
Royals is offensive to peasants
Giants is offensive to short people.

To: malach
"Maybe they should make this a board game. “Everything is racist”; just make the connection and win a roll of the dice."This is turning out to be just like the California Prop65 warning.
To shield yourself from lawsuits you slap a Prop65 cancer warning on a bottle of water now because of lawyers looking for the tiniest way to sue you for anything to make a buck. Now it has become so prevalent on everything it is meaningless, just like their racist charges here.
The dangerous products that it was actually intended for are lost in the haze of a million other items protecting themselves and is causing more harm than good at the end of the day.

As Texans do, that was very succinct and clear.
I’m a Natural Born Texas in DFW, with roots in TX back to the 1820s and 1840s.
The Texas Rangers became official about 1835, just before TX became a Republic after winning over Mexico.
The Rangers are one of the premier law enforcement agencies in the US. They have jurisdiction anywhere in the State.
The baseball Rangers name is a tribute to those who have served as Texas Rangers in law enforcement.
