I found a new reason to be offended by the Filthydelphia Eagles, they're named in honor of this:

Since the emperor recognizes 'Redskins' as an offensive word ,I wonder if his new sense of pc will have him publicly take on the words that campaign contributor and his special guest on his inauguration day ,Jay Z calls young black men and young women .

And what would that be perchance; black skins? The racism in your country knows no bounds, the veneer is cracking

If it were ONLY him, we shouldn't change it.. But, of course, it ISN'T only him. It's probably a rather large segment of society. But, even if it's a SMALL segment of society, WHY would you want to offend them?

Apparently, you think you should be the arbiter of all things offensive.. And, if it doesn't offend YOU, it's NOT offensive.

But, beyond that... I thought you wingers were gonna reach out to be more inclusive so you could, maybe WIN a presidential election... No, huh?

I have taken no other position on this issue than to point out the hypocrisy of the emperor and the pc crowd, If I was the owner of the Skins I would change the name just to move past the bs.

JayZ uses the N word to describe young black men... and hoe ,b*tches and other words for young black women. Apparently because Jay Z is black he's immune from criticism .He is often in attendance at the White House including the time I mentioned.

Apparently the whole hip hop culture gets a pass. As an example here is the lyrics from Eminem's new hit song.
I attempt these lyrical acrobat stunts while I'm practicing that
I'll still be able to break a mother*ckin' table
Over the back of a couple of faggots and crack it in half

Clever eh ? Even lefties like Alex Baldwin gets slapped down for describing someone as a faggot. But Eminem will get sales and a platinum record out of it .

Hello again, tom:

It IS true that some people can call others n******, and some people can't. You find something WRONG with that. I find it sociologically INTERESTING. The relationships between the races is continually evolving, and these are simply steps along the way.

Yes, I KNOW you guys think we've EVOLVED. You think racism is over, and as proof, you offer up our black president.

I don't share your viewpoint.

What you find socially interesting I find hypocritical. I would respect the bi racial emperor more if he wasn't so blatantly one sided. He needs a Sista Souljah moment ;and a smack down of Jay Z and the hip hop culture would do the trick.
I don't think that electing a black President is an achievement at all because we elected the wrong one .Unlike the left ,I don't give him a pass because of the color of his skin ,nor do I form my opinions of him based on his color .

Again, you think the culture is BAD and WRONG. I don't. And, I'm sure the president doesn't either.

You guys have gerrymandered the TParty into power, and to them the standard of governance is destroy everything they don't like, including their own. What will you do with them? What will you do with all those RHINOS? I bet there are more RHINOS than TParty.

Ummm here In NY a repubic rep is a rare breed due to the very gerrymandering you complain about .

Here in Texas also.

Be careful which Halloween costume you wear .
'Offensive' Halloween costumes banned by US university - Telegraph
Guess I have to get rid of my Lone Ranger costume .

As long as they don't dress like a twerking Miley Cyrus I don't much care.

Or dress like Marines in their new uni-sex hats .

I hear the idea was from the WH but I have to wonder if it was Lurch, you know, because our Marines don't look French enough.

Maybe they will all be naked because whatever they were to wear is bound to offend somebody.

Good point, and of course being naked doesn't offend anyone.

Hey, a thought, if these are all regional teams why do they need a mascot embelishment in their name?
