For the record my best friend is pure blood Native American. And she thinks all this is BS.
No call out.
No sense.
Governor and owner in the 90's.
I'll let your own team help you here, I'm not bailing you.
Quick, someone tell the president. We're dropping the issue because some people don't give a crap.
Better yet.....quick tell the President. Most don't give a **** about what he thinks and damn near most really just don't care How he feels.
Maybe we should reinstitute the Washington Bullets.
Imagine some of their uniforms and insignias.
They could be the Washington NRAs for a night, though Northern Idaho Aryans also comes to mind.
How about the Washington Semi-automatics.

Washington Redskins Name Change: Poll Shows Widespread National Support For Team Name
There's precedent for a Washington team changing its name because of cultural sensitivities. The late Washington Bullets owner Abe Pollin decided the nickname was inappropriate because of its association with urban violence, and in 1997, the NBA team was rechristened the Wizards.....snip~
Washington Redskins Name Change: Poll Shows Widespread National Support For Team Name
Yes you were called out.....hence you being asked for a link. The ones you can't produce. Until you got something on that issue.....then its your norm. Nothing but some bloviating hot air. No Substance.....kinda like damn near non existence.
Quick, someone tell the president. We're dropping the issue because some people don't give a crap.
Hey the President is entitled to his opinion. Why you guys are flippin' I duuna know. It doesn't seem like the President is nor my friend:roll:
As I explained earlier, one person's opinion is irrelevant. It is offensive and bad for society to label by skin color, doing so harms everyone. This reasoning cannot be defeated. The owner is being a dumbass, the next owner will change the name anyway.
I really don't want to negotiate over this.
I wasted a lotta time proving schools had concealed-carry just for those idiots to then say it didn't matter.
Bush's whole life was a failure, not just his POTUS.
Without Laura and Barbara and his Father............
I think "flippin'" would be like, say... using an anecdote to claim labeling by skin color is fine. That's flippin' somethin'. Do you always debate like this?
Hey I'm a cracker whiter than Wonder Bread.
It's not "cultural sensitivities". It's "labeling people by skin color is ****ing moronic".
Harry? Is that you Sen. Reid?
Not the same, is it, Apache and Redskin. Kinda like Zulu and N*gger.
Whats your excuse for that now?
Do you also have a black friend that's not offended by 'nigger'? If so, we could just forget that whole thing.
Do you have an actual argument or point?
You are to wound up. James, not my only black friend, used the N word the other day. And usinf the term Redskin in modern day gladiatorial battles means they can kick ass.
Good day
Obviously, the name 'Redskins' is offensive. Just ask any Native- you'll probably have to ask because they wouldn't say so otherwise. My wife is Metis and I have Native friends and inlaws and they mostly just shake their heads about stuff like that, it being in their nature to ignore the rudeness until they're asked. Maybe that's why it's been tolerated so long.
I was not referring to the bullets. I've no problem with the name 'bullets'. I've no problem with the 'IEDs'. Those are objects. Do you have a problem with the name 'bullets'?
Nope I didn't.....But then I don't think there are any Wizards in Washington either. :lol:
Truly they should have went with the Washington Whizzers.....as most things tend to Whiz Right past those in Washington DC. :mrgreen:
