Half US Senate Pressuring NFL to Change Redskins Name, Comparing Situation to Donald Sterling

[RoboticDreams]

not surprised at all.

'Twas a joke, dude. You obviously have problems with comprehension. Go troll the NBA boards and leave the NFL to adults.

 

[mrwallace2ku]

You're equating Redskin with ****er? GTFO with that nonsense. It's not even in the same realm.

^ According to that white guy...

 

[Jims_Doors]

that's still an indian theme though

Is Utes a derogatory term to describe them??

Don't get mad at me.......you made yourself look stupid, again.

Provide me historical data to support such a comparison and I'll concede that it is the same. I'm not doing it because I didn't make the ridiculous claim.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Good.

When Wahoo was created a lot of cartoons were pretty offensive and wouldn't fly today.

they fly just fine, it obviously hasn't been changed=Cleveland..the Cleveland logo cant be compared to a black guy with huge lips, that's just reaching and stupid..cartoon characters are characters because they are exaggerated..it hurts no one

Jesus, you're dumb.

Lol, okay. You can't understand blatant sarcasm but I'm the one who looks dumb. Got it.

I think you should run along and find some cute tweets to post to NBA threads. Most of those guys have a hard time reading, so pictures and tweets are right up their alley. You're of use there, I'll admit that.

 

[ram29jackson]

It's not the picture or the name of a tribe.... it's a word that was used just like the word n***er is used today.

go yell redskins outside and see if anyone gives a damn

He's probably goofy enough to actually try it. I'm sure people will look at him with concern more than anything else.

 

[NinerSickness]

For those equating the term "Redskin" and the N word...

Native Americans referred to themselves as "Red" people when the Europeans began to settle.

You mean the "white liberals" who want Washington to change their team name versus the "white rednecks" who want Washington to keep their current team name?

ok...


I just collected the data off this thread alone...first half stats only tho.

White Liberals...3
White Rednecks...7

representative country sample as far as I wanted to go anyways...happy now Uncle Whitey?

Ahhh...so less representing makes it ok.

Got it.

Yeah right. Keep living in your own little world.

I think you need to go fuck yourself and bring something to the table, cause you don't here and certainly never have on the NBA boards.

Whatever name they could come up with would be worse than Redskin if it were a reflection of the DC area.

"Washington Parasites" sounds good to me.

 

[RobToxin]

Lol, time to come up with some new insults, Wallace. It wasn't racist from the outset and still isn't. The main people offended are white liberals who want everyone to be offended by everything. The name should remain and will for the foreseeable future.

Now here is someone who actually gets the origin of political correctness.

Anybody ever watched Saved by the Bell? There was an episode where one of the white girls finds out her ancestors were slave owners so she ends up going out of her way to the point of being completely annoying trying to apologize to the black girl on the show for it.

That is today's PC liberal.

You've become to the point of your apologist attitude that you even begin to annoy the very people you are apologizing too.

You aren't supporting any of your claims with anything other than personal feeling. When you compared the "N" word with Redskin you showed your ignorance on the matter. They aren't comparable because they don't hold the same history of hatred or pain. It's really quite simple.

Black people define themselves by color, calling each other black, when not using more colorful language.

If an Asian dates a white, the term for that Asian is a 'Bannana'.

And yes, there HAS been polling done, American Indians DGAF about the name. Im a quarter AI, and I certainly dont care. And it is REAL obvious the only people who care are the insane freaks who wish to force others to conform to what they want, using moral outrage and general smarminess to achieve domination over others.

Some people are just busybodies.
