“the term could be offensive to others”
This is only a valid complaint if you’re a member of a recognized “victim class”.
If pro-lifers, or Christians, or Jews are “offended”, don’t expect anybody to pay attention.

Leave it to West Virginia. You know, I always thought all the jokes about WV were just plain mean, and then I moved there and realized they are not mean...just true. Wow.

Imagine the horror of the ignorant bystander when hearing the term that Cajuns use for each other in casual conversation.

This guy thinks "Hoppy Shores Park" would be a better name than "Coonskin Park"?
Why not just rename it "Hetereos Might Want to Stay Out of the Men's Rooms Park"?

Which came first— the ‘coon or ‘the coon?’ If coonskin caps were called that before blacks were called coons, wouldn’t prior usage weigh in the consideration?
In a world not run by PC, it would.
To: Timber Rattler
That’s exactly whom I think of when I hear or see the word “coonskin”. How could that be “offensive”? What is wrong with people?
