I bet this guy loves the name Redskins.

The Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe in Mt. Pleasant, Michigan, is calling for a boycott of Lansing-based firm ACD.net, whose Chief Financial Officer Kirk Shewchuck left a voicemail laced with racial slurs and vulgarities after apparently not hanging up his phone properly.

We’ll see what happens, those f**king Indians let’s call them red man, I was listening to the radio on the way in this morning and you can’t use red man in the paper because…..You know what the f**k you let’s sic the Sault Tribe on you, let’s get a good old fashioned Indian woo woo woo woo woo woo (laughter) around in Michigan the one they would be leery of are Huron Indians – the Huron Indians wiped out most of the other tribes – the Huron’s were the motorcycle gangs, the rest of them were on horses (laughter) I’m serious, the rest of the Indians here were farmers – it’s pretty cool we should put a tribal elder….on the reservation there – we should call them back – I might go up there and go like this….are you the guy – did you hear about the guy with the cell phone camera who got arrested….and then the police walked up to him and it shut off their signal and they couldn’t radio in….Go up to the reservation and so you don’t want a wireless tower here you know what happens to your cell phone signals (laughter) I’ll turn it back on in a few minutes after you agree to – maybe they would like that – you know they can’t talk on their cell phones at the casino they would spend more time there but maybe the opposite would be true and they keep leaving to check their cell phones…wouldn’t that be cool…and their cell phones….
