The use of stereotypical war whoop chants and tomahawk chops are offensive and downright racist. It is those types of actions that perpetuate negative stereotypes and continue to minimize and degrade all native peoples.
I agree. Wait, what were we talking about again?

Hey Chief Jerk,
What about Atlanta fans and Florida seminole fans, are they racist too? Get off the pot.

Racist? Racist? That’s so stupid, this so-called CHIEF Baker is calling us racist when he looks more like Chris Dodd than Geronimo or Sitting Bull. I mean, the guy doesn’t even have his hair in a Mohawk cut, wear a huge feathered head-dress or is not carrying a bow and arrow or spear with a scalp on it. What a fraud. He’s probably wearing a pair Jockey shorts vice a breech clout under his suit pants. And, to top it off, when he walks up to someone, he no doubt shakes their hand instead of raising his palm and saying “HOW”. Damn fraud....where’s his pinto horse, named ‘Paint’? The closest this so-called injun ever came to a wild Mustang was probably when the his daddy bought him a shiny new 2 plus 2 Ford Mustang with 4-on-the-floor and a 4-barrel under the hood.
When his colored negro maid brings him his martini, he probably doesn’t even grunt “UGH”, much less “thank you”. Do you think he ever watched the series ‘Sheriff of Cochise’ on TV? Not even, baby. He wouldn’t know Tonto from Jimmy Durante. Geezzzz......

Or Chicago, Cleveland, Kansas City, and Washington, for that matter.

The descendant of Cherokee slave owners has the nerve to call others “racist”?

All Scott Brown has to do is say he wasn’t making fun of indians but he was making fum of his opponent who is faux indian.
[to the tune of John Brown Had a Little Indian]
Scott Brown mocked a fake indian
Scott Brown mocked a fake indian
Scott Brown mocked a fake indian
Who pretended she was 1/32 Cherokee

Tomahawk Chop!
If they removed all instances of "racist" references and replaced them all with fluffy clouds, rainbows and unicorns, the tears would continue over not being adequately represented in the public setting.
...and I'm totally going to hell for using "tears" to describe Cherokee complaints.

So, Cherokee Nation Principal Chief Bill John Baker supports a politician from the political party that threw the Cherokees off their ancestral tribal lands.
Smooth move.

Hey, chiefy...start with Hollywood fist, they’ve been doing it for decades. The only thing most people know about Indians they learned from Hollywood movies, including the “war whoops”.
More attempts to apply race-politics to get monetary or political gain.

They were making fun of Paleface Lizzy. She took money meant for an Indian. By mocking phony Paleface Lizzy, they are actually siding with the Cherokee.

They were doing that back in the early 90s with the tomahawk chop for the Atlanta Braves.
