Washington Redskins will NEVER change name

[Methais]

This is about a 1000 miles away from being a complete argument so let me ask you some questions to see if we can't get a little clarity.

Are you saying that because the word Humma means red people in Choctaw and that Homa in Oklahamo is an anglicized version of humma, therefore using the word Oklahoma is a racial slur?

Even saying the word Oklahoma is racist because it sounds too much like Oklahomo.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess that most if not all of the people that are pretending to be outraged by the name Redskins aren't actually Indians.

Not even 1/32 Indian.

And if there are, they're probably the exception rather than the rule.

Just my guess.

If I owned the Redskins I'd keep everything about the name and logo the same, except I'd go with blue instead of red just to see who cries about it.

Kind of like this:

Let's leave Elizabeth Warren out of this. You can't prove she's NOT 1/32nd Native American. She has an Indian Cookbook to prove she is!

The Blueskins name is racist against Scottish people, you jerks.

[Methais]

But Scottish people are white, and there's no such thing as racism against crackers.

Okla means red, Humma means people. And yes, you could say that. Also, you spelled it wrong, it's really not hard to spell. Okla Homa. Hell, you even had the Homa part right 2 words before.

oddly enough...

"Nigger is a noun in the English language. The word originated as a neutral term referring to black people, as a variation of the Spanish/Portuguese noun negro, a descendant of the Latin adjective niger ("color black")."

A neutral term derived from another language turns into a racial slur... HMMM..... Yeah, I guess I was wrong.

I hope they change the name just so you guys will stop whining about why they shouldn't.

That's all you got? Where are the graphs and the complex mathematics. You're really slipping Latrin.
