If you are at a bar, and you overhear someone say “some redskins just walked in,” would you think they were talking about a football player, or a Native American? Would ANYONE who heard that think they were talking about anything other than a football player?

There was a time in the past where the word was a slur. But, unlike the n-word, LITERALLY NO ONE uses the word as a slur anymore. NO ONE. The “racial slur” definition of the word is extinct.

The overwhelming majority of pressure to change the name comes from white liberal men who, instead of doing anything meaningful to help minorities who are suffering REAL injustice, instead want to write a blog or tweet about the how awful the redskins team name is. It’s a way for them to assuage their “white guilt” from the comfort of home without actually doing anything. Well, I’m a very left leaning liberal white man who says this is absolute bull shit.
