Back in October, a spokesman for the Oneida Indian Nation said that he "sought an amendment to (NFL) by-laws to prohibit franchises from naming a team any term that is a racial epithet", and then went on to say that the "dictionary describes the word "redskins" precisely that way".

Liberals were all in favor of such a change in rules, entirely ignoring the right of a business owner to run their organization as they see fit.
That is interesting because liberals supported the right of A&E to suspend Phil Robertson after his comments concerning homosexuals.
Apparently, liberals only support a businesses right to freely run their business if they operate in ways approved by liberals.
But, Harrier digresses.
Note, that the Oneida Nation spokesman(forgive Harrier for not bowing to liberal political correctness and calling the man a spokesperson, so as to be "gender neutral") wants the definition of "redskin" to be acknowledged, and liberal agree with him.
Yet, liberals have been busy redefining the word "marriage".
So, if redefining "marriage" is OK, isn't it a little hypocritical for liberals to support acknowledging the definition of the word "redskin"?
Why not similarly acknowledge that the definition of marriage is "a union between a man and a woman"?
Alternatively, liberals can be consistent by simply redefining "redskin", and then there should be no racial connotations concerning the Washington Redskins name, and no more controversy.
Harrier has successfully created many threads and liberal hypocrisy is a topic.
Would you care to answer the question?
Would you support redefining the word "redskin" and letting the Redskins keep the name?
what would the definition of the word "redskin" be and why should we redefine what a racist word means? Also, when has marriage been considered a racist word?

Harrier doesn't know what the definition would be - he does know that the Oneida Nation spokesman cited the current definition of the word, and liberals supported his statement.
Meanwhile, liberal seek to redefine the word "marriage".
That is hypocritical.
Harrier never said that the word "marriage" had any racial connotations.

The definition of marriage changed in 1967, is Harrier also against that definition change?

The team owner should be the one to decide the name of the team. If people are offended they can choose to not go to the games.
