Here's a classic example of "be careful of what ya wish for".

Here's just one article of protests leading up to the Redskins being pressured to drop their name.

https://www.huffpost.com/entry/chan...s-change-name_n_5f0dc60dc5b6df6cc0b1a960

So, they changed their name a couple years ago. NOW, the Natives must have realized that all they accomplished was canceling themselves and after taking a poll of themselves, find that 90% of them want the name back and are boycotting to get it back this time, lol.

There comes a point liberalism has gone too far, we're past that point.

What they don't realize is that these names are used because they are held in high esteem, in respectful honor, not derogatory.
My high school was once called, "Indians" because we considered that a powerful, honorable culture. We were proud of the name.


Immigrants who bypassed legal process in migrating to the US demand legal process before being kicked out.

It’s football. It’s a waste of time and money. And nobody cares enough about a name change to actually boycott anything sports related.

Most of the Indians I know were Redskins fans. They were ticked off by the name change.

Kind of like those BLM rioters that were fat white kids that looked like they just crawled out of mommies basement? How many Native Americans did they actually consult with? Pocahontas doesn't count!


Dog faced pony soldier and proud of it!

Edmonton Eskimo’s are now the Elks. Not elk, like “we saw a few elk up there” Elks. Happened all over in small time sports too. One local town here kept the Warriors name, but most are Métis and don’t care what the left thinks.

What high school was that. Mine was also Indians shortly before I got there it changed to Wolfpack. Still had the Indian head tiled in the floor and everyone walked around it rather than over it as respect.

I hope the natives and those who have the utmost respect for natives begin chanting "Let's Go Redskins" at the stadium when the season starts up again. Kinda like "Let's Go Brandon".
