I remember when Scott MacGregor pitched for the Orioles.

i’M surprised some groups haven’t tried to get the breed name of the Rhodesian Ridgeback dog changed because of something like this.

But the bird’s name holds a violent history that Stephen Hampton can’t forget.

Really? He was there when it all happened?

They simple don’t like western culture. That’s a large area of the world to hate and incredible futile to try and destroy.

WTF. More trolling for revisionist history.

I hold no responsibility for Scott, or the 4000 dead Cherokee. I was not alive then.

we now live in a different world. I don’t really care what they call the birds.But its weird to start renaming everything.I think it lacks courage and confidence in the present.

He is relieved that he lives outside their range so he doesn’t have to see them and be reminded of Winfield Scott and have his day ruined by being triggered to the memory of something he never personally experienced. He needs help.

When do we get to chop off the head of whatever Robespierre is out there and end this reign of terror?

If we are to relive history, we relive it all, not just certain parts, taken out of context.

During the Revolutionary War, at the behest of the British, the Cherokee and Creeks slaughtered thousands of settlers, in the most brutal fashion.

One of the reasons for removal to Oklahoma, after the war, was to seperate the Cherokee from the remaining settlers, who would seek revenge.

Andrew Jackson wanted it to end.

There is NO name that cannot be associated with “hate speech” in any way shape or form.

This is irrational nonsense perpetuated by RETARDS

***The journey killed over 4,000 Cherokee,***

Not so!
https://www.oklahoman.com/article/2217279/trail-of-tears-death-toll-myths-dispelled

“The act caused a spate of articles about how the Cherokees lost 4,000 or more dead on a terrible trek, described as a “forced” march, presumably indicating they were prodded by bullet and bayonet as they moved during the hard winter of 1837-38.

The oddities are: 1) Voluminous records, including those of the Cherokee nation itself, show no loss approaching 4,000 (an actual figure of about 840 deaths was bad enough); 2) The word “forced” insults the Cherokees because they conducted their own march, paid for by Washington; 3) The phrase “Trail of Tears” was never used by a Cherokee in the 1830s, but came into existence under other circumstances some 70 years later.”

I read a book titled Cynical Theories and reading chapter 8 made me understand the thinking we are up against. It is so much worse than Imimagined. In some ways we have been fighting in the wrong ways. Recommend at least that chapter and the first two.

Now they’re going after Winfield Scott - “Scott’s military talent was highly regarded by contemporaries, and historians generally consider him to be one of the most accomplished generals in U.S. history.”

Now that he lives outside the bird’s range, “I’m kind of relieved,” he says.

Having a mental breakdown over a bird name.

To nip all this ridiculous crap, it would be best to reassign all species an arbitrary number. This is the Borg identification system . This bird for example can be species 847-6224-42. Catchy, isn’t it.

Let’s talk about “brain drain”.

Imagine you have a population of people who are not very bright to begin with, and you take the best half of them out every generation. You leave the sickly, lazy, alcoholic, and genetically challenged in the population, to breed the next generation.

That’s what reserve indians are.

It’s not just indians. It happens everywhere all the time.

Are you ancestors the rising distillate, or the leftover sludge?
