American Indian group wants the Cleveland Indians name changed


Recommended Posts

As far as Redskins go, calling attention to skin color is the problem in my opinion. A vote should be taken at all reservations across the nation to determine how American Indians feel about the name.

 

Then honor the outcome...

Racist! The People were here before Vespucci and they do not come from the subcontinent of India. They're no more "American Indians" than you are intelligent.

I understand that PETA is preparing legal challenges to other NFL team names, e.g., Lions, Ravens, Dolphins. The thinking behind the legal actions is that the scorn attached to the teams in general as well as individual players may have a negative impact on animals in zoos in those cities.

 

OK, so not exactly the case at the moment, but almost as whiggy as the Redskins thing. (Use of the word "whiggy" is not meant to disparage a former US political party.)

Does anyone care that this thread has been dominated by a troll, and youins just sucked up his bsjizz?

 

Isn't every person on the anti-Redskins bandwagon is a troll? Or is it just the most amazing coincidence ever that all these people suddenly realized after decades of following/covering football that this abhorant injustice was staring them in the face?

It's the feel good story du jour of the hypocrite society.

Or perhaps we have just evolved to this point?

 

The USA is a melting pot, all races, cultures, religious choices brought together and melted down to stand as one. The reason it works is because regardless If you are of a majority or minority your beliefs will be honored and respected.

 

In some cases sacrifices have to be made...

So, under your scheme I now am a black cracka who wears a yarmulke that prays to the holy spirit but in the direction of Mecca 5 times a day and also wants to throw Joe into the volcano? Why do you come to PPP and post? Is it like self-flagellation ritual you must endure?

So because I live here I have to respect and honor the beliefs of everyone? What flying rainbow farting unicorn did you just fly in on? So I have to honor and respect: NABMBLA, the KKK, the Westboro Baptist Church, the 911 Truth Movement, Scientologists and members of the Screen Actors Guild?

 

That's the funniest thing I've heard in a long time.

Does the KKK or NABMBLA sound like it has anything to do with religion, culture or ethnicity to you Chef?

What on earth do you consider a culture? NAMBLA is a culture of men who like little boys. But that aside I see you olayed the Westboro Babtist Church.

Documents: Anti-Redskins Indian leader not a legitimate member of his tribe

 

The American Indian leader spearheading the campaign to change the name of the Washington Redskins is not a legitimate member of the tribe he leads, according to a New York State Assemblywoman, but rather an Obama crony who is raking in casino money and paying back only small stipends to his tribe members.

 

Oneida Nation Representative Ray Halbritter, who is also the CEO of Oneida Nation Enterprises, is not recognized in his position by the Grand Council of Chiefs governing the Six Nations Iroquois Confederacy. Halbritter is not a legitimate member of the Oneida tribe, Assemblywoman Claudia Tenney told the Daily Caller.
