If the Redskins choose to change their name that's fine, but the notion that for the offense of an extreme minority opinion the government has the right to step in, even though there is no threat of physical harm to the minority, is a ludicrous spin on the role of government.

Couldn't have said it better myself. And I agree with Monkeydad as well. People need to stop finding things to get offended about. And as for those REDSKINS fans who are FOR the name change, don't give me the "it's not a big deal, just change the name" speech. If it's not a big deal, then there is no reason to change the name and keep bringing it up.
