A T-shirt produced by a North Dakota business at tempting to poke fun at the UND Fighting Sioux logo con troversy has inflamed ten sions on an already sensitive issue.
The shirt, which James town, N.D.-based Orriginals Inc. began printing about a week ago, includes the words: "No Sioux Logo No Sioux Ca sinos!" It also features UND's Indian head logo with the words: "Hostile and Abusive," and plots out the location of three casinos in North Dakota and South Dakota, which it describes as "Destructive and Addictive."

has inflamed ten sions If only ten sions were inflamed, it isn't that bad.
Hundreds of sions inflamed.. that'd be trouble.

I hope the injuns are more stable than the muzzies and won’t dance around demanding scalps in retribution for this “insult”.

I’m not sure what that is about. The newspaper’s website maybe? Another article I just posted doesn’t have the spaces.
To: Ed Condon
I would say some rookie at the paper doesn’t know how to justify type correctly, and then cut and pasted it like that into their web site.
