It's not a stretch to think a word that's defined in the dictionary as being racist, is offensive to some people. Would we even consider naming a team today Redskins? Of course not.
That’s a fair point.

But again, I find it strange some would support and even vote for a person like Elizabeth Warren who actually lied about NA heritage more than once and benefited from it. But that’s a different subject, for a different time.

To be fair, a thread about our name change IS a purely political thread.

It is, but then when you start bitching about bashing Senators and other stuff, it goes wayyy off topic.
