#7  Apache, Lakota, Tomahawk, Kiowa, Flintstones, Arrowhead, anything injun needs to be renamed. Then we rename everything with Spanish names. No more of this China town stuff. Chicago Bears is an insult to animals rights moonbats...

#3  SeattleWeekly: Willpinit High School Redskins, over in Spokane County. Except they have no plans to change their mascot. At a school where more than 90 percent of the students are Indian - in the heart of the Spokane Reservation where author Sherman Alexie was raised – theyÂ’re sticking with Redskins. Said Tim Ames, superintendent of Wellpinit schools, this week: “IÂ’ve talked to our students, our parents and our community about this and nobody finds any offense at all in it. ‘RedskinsÂ’ is not an insult to our kids. ‘Wagon burnersÂ’ is an insult. ‘Prairie niggersÂ’ is an insult. Those are very upsetting to our kids. But ‘RedskinsÂ’ is an honorable name we wear with pride. Â… In fact, IÂ’d like to see somebody come up here and try to change it.”

#2  Not so much squirrel as a proof-positive demonstration that these A$$hats can and shall do what they want.

Notice to all not of a "right mind" has been served.

Alinsky Rule #8: “Keep the pressure on. Never let up.” Keep trying new things to keep the opposition off balance. As the opposition masters one approach, hit them from the flank with something new. (Attack, attack, attack from all sides, never giving the reeling organization a chance to rest, regroup, recover and re-strategize.)
