If you really want to know, why don't you write to the National Congress of American Indians and ask them how much this commercial cost them to make and air.

Call the thought police?

Let's be entirely stupid about it.
If you believe a law has been violated and you are the affected party (have standing) you can file a lawsuit as did this group of American Indians. A court will decide the merits of your case and a make a legal decision based on the law.

The video was produced and aired by the National Congress of American Indians, presumably because they considered it important.

Liberals use minorities and anything else they feel they need to champion a cause for as fodder for their agendas. Do they actually care? No, they will hop on the next bus to liberal justice la-la land and forget about Redskins until the media happens to mention it in a couple of years.They do it all to distance themselves from media perceived "racists" and to feel good about themselves. Everything they do is just and for the common good as they are legends in their own minds.

All of your truly fake outrage over what you call "fake outrage" shows how backwards you all are.

Backwards? I always do 360s and am therefore always facing the correct direction.

Thank you great mind reading right winger for telling me how I actually think because clearly you would know better than I would and in no way would that be based on your own racist and anti-liberal bias (both of which you've proudly put on display right here in this thread).

You seem to have a tough time accepting that liberals don't think like you do. Maybe you can get some help for that.

I know how the Cleveland Browns got their name and no it isn't something I would freak out about.


Origin of NFL Team Names | Quake City

Why would I be offended that the Browns are named after Paul Brown? Did you think they were named after the amount of black people in Cleveland?

You know it, and I know it, but others... eh....maybe not.

Who was "offended" by the name RedSkins? Anyone? Anybody? Aside from the deliberately over sensitive "progressives" I don't think anyone ever cared. The fact that the "progressives" have so much power to dictate what an NFL Football team should be called, despite having it's previous name for years, and despite the legion of Red Skins fans demanding to leave the name alone, is a testament to the "progressives" power. They are the establishment.

This is just stupid and a sign of what our nation is becoming, and it's not becoming a good thing.
