Guest Salacious Crumb Report post Posted November 20, 2004 I guess they have bigger things to devote their concern too Casinoes? I'd say that they're more concerned about the living conditions for themselves and their families. Oh I know, just making a joke. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Your Paragon of Virtue 0 Report post Posted November 20, 2004 Saying things like "black welfare jockeys" makes you come off as the total opposite of the moronic conservative he seemed to portray you as. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd say that they're more concerned about the living conditions for themselves and their families. Mascots are probably a notch or two below economic prosperity and dying Native languages really. It's quite an important issue around Indian country. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Czech Republic 0 Report post Posted November 20, 2004 You can't get rid of Indian names. I'd be fine with the Redskins wearing the spear helmets full time and replacing the Indian head, but not because I'm sensitive to the plight of the Indians, I just think the spear looks cooler.

Slayer 0 Report post Posted November 20, 2004 I didn't even bother reading the first post. I do find it funny when the PC anti-Native American mascot crowd lumps in the likes of the Illini and Seminoles, whose nations cooperate with their universities to present an accurate image of their nation Also, Cerebuses'ess's...

TheBigSwigg 0 Report post Posted November 20, 2004 Yeah, I don't think most Native American names are offensive, and I'm partly Native American. (Not small partly, my dad and I qualify as minorities). Redskins, I can see, but I don't think Seminoles, Braves, Illini, etc. are that bad. It's not like the name is TRYING to taunt us or anything, it's just paying respect. Right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
