Oh Plz.. No mas no mas
I promise I will never root for the Minnesota Redskins.
“A sensitive city”,, huh?
Is dope legal there for council members?
Are they going to ban everything from Oklahoma as well? Choctaw for “Red People”.
A Last Place Team has more problems than Redskins.
So the KC Chiefs and Cleveland Indians get a pass?
I’m POnder’in that one.
I hear ya tho.
Too bad Red didn’t move em to San Antone
Rename em the San Antone Border Invaders or sumthin’.
How many teams would choose a name that, in their and their fans minds, would be considered derogatory? None. And that is why the Redskins should remain the Redskins.
lol
First Amendment? What’s that?
No we don’t do 1st Amendment here. It’s racist, sexist and homophobic.
Now go pay your taxes, your government is broke.
Minneapolis is a bush league city.
Minneapolis would better serve its citizens if they banned sharia law.
Really, they need a law to prevent me from uttering a sound?
Wow.
And someone proposed this out loud?
That person should be shown a copy of the US Constitution.
When people have full time jobs and work hard for a living they don’t have time to complain about BS like this. Its just utter stupidity. There are so many more important things to worry about...
So, Redskins is offensive but Vikings okay?
The Vikings don't exactly have the most pristine past.
What's his hourly rate?
I can do it cheaper. The answer is , "no".
Where do I send the bill?
No,you do not have the right to ‘ban’ a name. Want something to ban? The towelhead headchoppers.
OK. Let’s give Minneapolis back to the “indigenous peoples.”
.... The Redskins will only recognize you by your real name.
