the fcc to ban word redskins on tv

[Buffalo_Nickel_1]

The'fcc'is'looking in to ban the word redskin on tv and radio man this shit won't go away

Now I have supported the movement to change the name (mainly to see Skin fans get upset over it) but thus is dumb on the fcc's part.

FCC - GTFO!!

Their time would be better served fixing the abuses of the cellphone and cable industries and all the charges piled on your bill, which is about a page worth.

I still stay ignore it. Again, the numbers just aren't there. There is overwhelming support to keep the name as from both the Native american community as the us population at large. They haven't lost one sponsor. The League has decided to do just what I say.....they are ignoring it. Until anyone of these facts change, there is no reason to even give it credence by addressing it.

There is no way the FCC can ban the word. They haven't banned the N word. I hear it said on airwaves all the time. The work spic and chink, etc are used. Its just someone blowing smoke who has no stroke. Don't fret over this. lets get back to important debates.....like why RG3 and Snyder were together at dinner last year. Think they talked about Shanahan?

It is not going away, Your references to the "N" word relates to what's said on cable....public airways, on which the NFL airs most of its' games is what's at question here. I will admit that it's a long shot to end the use of the term, given the broad spectrum of allowable words that there are, but to have the head of the FCC take this position is a fairly big step in getting it done.

This is not a question of what you care or don't care about. I was responding to the posters claim that if you ignore it, it will go away. Didn't you also say "so much for your "shut up and it will go away " plan eh j-y19 ?" Is agreeing with you debatable? The poster also included in his reply some false information about the use of the "N" word that needed to be clarified. I purposely worded my response in a manner as to NOT get into the whole "name change" thing again as it is a very sensitive issue with some here.

What's your point? That Americans are in large chunks intellectually lazy? OK, they're lazy, but don't take that to mean they're stupid by attempting to conflate issues that are not related.

Is it your position that PC is something that comes from and supported by politically left leaning people? Tell us please and remove all doubt. This name change thing is absolutely not derived from a political position by all who support it. That is something that you tell yourself in order to feel better about the growing number of folks that have come to this conclusion for reasons of their own. It is like my giving you some simple minded reason that people who oppose the name change do so ONLY because they have their emotions tied to it. It takes a closed mind from those who are unable to consider that there other logical and reasoned deductions in reaching conclusions for and against it. It is indeed intellectually lazy to attempt to pigeon hole either side into one reason for doing so.

Let me ask you a question.........If you owned a new expansion team and the ONLY choices that you had in so far as naming that team which of these would you name it? 1. Whiteskins.......2. Blackskins.........or yellowskins. All attempts at humor, diversion or slick non answers will only confirm that you are on board with the P.C. world.

Addenum; You could name it after yourself besides those names. Sorry I could not correct my original post because of time limits.
