I remember reading that story, but somehow you never hear about it when the libtards raise their lunatic objections. I'm 1/2 Iroquois on my dad's side and none of our family, including me, has any objections about "Redskins" being used as a nickname.
In fact, we'd appreciate it if all non-Native Americans would just butt the f-ck out! We don't need any self-righteous asshöles speaking for us.

I've always said they just change the name to the Washington Whiteys.it even has alliteration going for it. That would shut them up.

But I guess the random 504 people surveyed by phone (which means they could be anyone and simply say they're Native American for that matter) know better.

Nope.
On the contrary, every other team in the league should change their name to be more offensive.

I think that the Purdue Boilermakers name is an affront to all decent boilermakers. And Packers? Packers of every stripe should be up in arms. Not to mention Fighting Irish.

Was the North American continent populated by Vikings and Irish who were systematically destroyed, with the survivors forced to live on reservations? Poor comparison.

I don't think people are offended at all, people have decided that if they dislike something it's offensive, I find it hard to believe that if a sports announcers say "touchdown Redskins" that and Indian lose their appetite or can't sleep because it's so bothersome.
