A newly opened “upstate”-themed bar in Windsor Terrace christened “Mohawk Tavern” in April has dropped the name after locals and Native Americans cried foul. “Once we heard the comments and people of Native American ancestry come in and say it was offensive, we figured it would be best to change the name out of respect for them,” said owner Paul Hamill, who will switch the pub’s name to “Adirondacks” in honor of the park and mountain range.

“practically all the cars in my hood have Obama and Coexist stickers on their bumpers. I”
I live in a similar “climate”..
My condolances
He should just change the name to “Pander Inn” or claim his own tribal bloodline with “Bo-hi-cah Tavern”
Firewater, heap bad medicine. Ugh.

Oh look, another group of hyper offended American pussies.

LOL - great comment Balding Eagle...
Except he didn’t roll over. He went one better.
No. When theaters take money from the gov or have those 501 C 3s or 7s, I forget, they must do plays about Injuns. Here in the northeast we are stuck with the boring Lanapes and Piscataways. I mean, not even a Sioux or a Cheyanne or a Ward Churchill!
And then the lugubrious Indians show up to inform you that you are a bigoted whitey - and hey, is that painting on the wall in your office some put down of our fine tribal traditions???? Picasso? What phony tribe is that???
And from there, you’d rather eat glass than hang out with these people.
this is turning into QUITE the can O’ Worms it tis
Muir - and they are obsessed with bloodlines in a way that would make Hitler smile.
While I like the idea, it would be impractical to re-name most of the cities and lakes in Wisconsin.
I’m not mocking Indians - I’m mocking ‘PC Indian Activists’... I don’t believe these ‘activists’ represent Indians any more than Black Panthers represent blacks...
I do not understand this. I thought that sports teams, school mascots and places like this were honoring the American Indians by naming themselves after them. Could it be that our Native American brothers are “low information” folks, or is it just me?
No, I’m mocking them.
He could have joined if he wanted to “contribute”
Id have to take a Guess at it but it certainly does APPEAR that these “native American” “brothers”..are not only low information types but genuinely PROUD of being so!!
“SAY IT LOUD
IM LAME AND IM PROUD!!!”
who is the “native American Jesse Jackson anyway!!??
My husband graduated from Lamar Highschool in Houston in 1954. He was proudly a Lamar Redskin until a couple of months ago.
I was being a little sarcastic. Of course it’s impractical, the Indian culture and names comprise much of our own culture.
I’m just reacting to all these Indian activists. If they want to be forgotten, then let’s accommodate them.
They need us. We don’t need them.
