To: I want the USA back

I think part of what’s going on here is that pressure groups never let a crisis go to waste.

There’ve been demands for years to get rid of Indian nicknames.

I think the pressure groups are taking advantage of the current climate to press again thinking that this is their chance to get rid of the Redskins nickname.

There's a great irony in all of this. Just think of all the targets we've seen in recent weeks of all this nonsense: the iconic Land O' Lakes woman, Aunt Jemima, Uncle Ben, and now the Washington Redskins.

It honestly looks to me as if some white supremacist movement is using these fools to pressure American companies to eliminate all images of black people and Indians from our consumer brands.

LOL.

The Washington FirstNationers? Indians like football too, but prefer being called First Nation people. Or so my part-Indian friend says.
