Replace the feather with a dot and rename the team The Gandhis.

At least for one game.

That’s what Bill Veek would have done.

Canada has a nerve.

When the Chief of a Western Tribe of the Inuit (My People!) saw the “Bird Flu” ravaging his community, he petitioned the Canadian Government to send cases of Medicine and hand-sanitizer.

The government refused, saying that the medicine was too expensive, and that the Indians would probably just DRINK the hand-sanitizer.

Instead, they sent a chief 100 BODY BAGS.

I’m not kidding.

“THE BURIED ONES!”
“THE ‘WHO?’”
“THE WRITTEN OUT OF HISTORY ONES!”

There is no such thing as free speech in Canada.

I guess Canada will need to change the name of its Capital. Shouldn’t offend a tribe renowned for its courage by using its name for the capital of such a panty waist country.

The legal challenge by indigenous activist Douglas Cardinal...

The Catholic Church should take this guy to court on his offensive last name making fun of the hierarchy in the Church. He should be forced to change it.

You would think it would be a source of pride for them. World is screwy now.

When my Dad was a kid in western Oklahoma, in a ‘dry’ county, at rodeos they would ask him to go into the drugstore buy them bottles of Aqua Velva aftershave lotion.
Heap good smellum.

I REALLY want them to force the Indians to wear different jerseys. That’ll easily be good for another half million Trump votes. Show us what PC run amok can do you canuck weenies. Bring it on!

When did "indian" become a derogatory term?

In the lands of the perpetually offended, everything is derogatory and no one has a sense of humor.

Bingo. If the Canadian snowflakes can’t handle the Cleveland INDIANS and their logo, just forfeit the games. We don’t want to offend the twinkies and snowflakes.

indigenous activist Douglas Cardinal, who culturally appropriated a European name, is attacking people of all colors who self identify as Indians. The left is entirely nuts.

LoL! This pretty much sums up the entire Canadian government. When they get offended because their stupid ideas don’t work they blame the people who tell them their stupid ideas don’t work. When their baseball team chokes, it’s the racist Indians...or whomever!
