I haven't heard a single Native American speak publicly about having a problem with the Redskins name. I'm sure there must be some who have a problem with it but mostly the campaign is coming from white liberals like Bob Costas who clearly has a liberal agenda.
So you find it "pathetic" that a news paper will no longer mention a racist name of football team. A name that was racist against people that were in the U.S. before any white, black, hispanic or asians even set foot on here. Can't imagine what goes in your head about other races of people.
The name is RACIST against Native Americans. That's it. You say leftist as if you are conservative. You can't have conservative beliefs about other things and be liberal about free speech to the point that racism is okay. I say good for daily news.

When have you EVER heard someone say something like "He's a $#%% Redskin!"
Right, you haven't. martinjsxx is spot on; this is a made up issue by white liberals to deflect from things like the awful job Blue Nixon has been doing for the past 6 years.
And I'll preempt your "BUT BOOOOOSH!!!" assault with agreeing that he sucked just as bad.
Simply pathetic. Don't we have bigger problems to be worrying about, than this nonsense?I for one am sick of these media people trying to make the news rather than just reporting it.

Well, I live in NYC and I haven't even seen a Native American. So I wouldn't have the misfortune of seeing one being called a racist name. How are you defending this?? It's the same as calling a team the "Boston Chin*s", "New York Ni**ers" or "Texas Sp"cs".

Came here to say exactly this. You never hear actual native americans speak out against it. Only the liberal justice crusaders, out to wrong all the rights of the world.
I'm not surprised nobody acknowledged your post though...

Yeah, it's not even close to that but go ahead and keep telling yourself it is.
Do you really think the team decided to name themselves a racist name on day one? That's beyond stupid. And if something "became racist", well that's on you.
Should I **** and moan that Notre Dame uses a leprechaun as its mascot because I have Irish heritage? No. And do you know why? Because I'm not a whiny liberal.
The faux outrage on this issue is what is really disgusting. But of course leave it to liberals to not recognize Americans as a whole and instead divide and conquer with labels such as African-American, LGBT American, etc. You're not a human being to them, you're part of a group to exploit in November. Conservatives do this too, but the Progs have it perfected.
