Possibly the worst politically correct people in our entire nation are the lazy, tribal-obsessed activist American Indian.

So now an actual formal tribe name is ‘offensive’? How will the native american tribes distinguish themselves from one another? Will they use numbers?

He should have named it “Rollover” in honor of himself.

Oh, oh....one of my all-time favorite movies is "Drums Along the Mohawk".

Soon to be re-named, I suppose, to "Drums In and Around the Adirondacks".

"Pussy's Pub" would have been more appropriate.

Beat me to it!

That has to be the dumbest substitution ever to avoid charges of offending minorities.

Idiots!

I think dropping the name is a good move.

All things Indian should be forgotten, wiped from our societal memory. Removing any and Indian names is a good start.

This is so rich! In Columbus Ohio, we have a restaurant called THE OLD MOHAWK, which has been in business since 1933, originally famous for its turtle soup. It is located in upscale, trendy, historic German Village. German village has the highest percentage of LGBT in Columbus, and The Mohawk is a favorite restaurant for the community. Now I see it differently, just a bunch of homosexuals eating murdered turtles prepared by racists who mock Indians.

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?

Sad when the majority erase another people from history. Sadder when the minority peoples erase themselves.

Better rename the haircut. Better rename the “Mohawk” Valley. Mohawk carpet.

That is so silly. So it is politically incorrect to name anything after a group of people? I guess half the place names in the the country would be out.

Why don’t we just give it up and name stuff A, B, C, etc?

Here is a politically incorrect skit for a Saturday morning.

PS. If the name Mohawk offends you, don’t watch this. Your head will explode.
