The team said they would issue “a formal statement that recognizes the unique and enduring relationship that exists between Indigenous Peoples and their traditional territories,” The Hill reported.

Ah, there's the rub. Which people on which land and and at which time? The ones who got there first, or the ones who were there when the Europeans came through?

Dating near the 10th Century, BC, the oldest pair of trousers were found in China.
You know what that means. Wearing trousers is Cultural Appropriation.

“Carleton says the whale...is hurting indigenous people.”


Did the good professor in Manitoba explain exactly how indigenous people were hurt? Did orcas eat indigenous people in the past and the memory of the predation still haunts them?

As we see, there are nicknames besides Indian nicknames, which will be deemed offensive by someone.

Not to the Injuns, but to the white liberals!

I am offended by Black Lives Matter and Antifa logos.

I demand that they change their logo and names.

Caucasian Lives Matter
Fascist Lives Matter

The old logo looks like the side trim on the 1961 Impala.🙂

A shark? No, an orca, or killer whale, is the largest member of the dolphin family.

I wrote: “It’s a shark - or specifically an orca.”

Yes orca are mammals not sharks, I think everyone knows that. The logo looks like a shark. I pointed out it is supposed to be an orca not shark.
