JONESVILLE, MI - A Red Indian ice cream flavor, marketed specially last week at a Jonesville restaurant, has roiled some and sparked a slew of sometimes vicious social media remarks.

"If you look at all the major Native organizations, using redskin to describe Indians is frowned upon at the very least, and it is considered blatantly racist and hurtful," Natasha Crall of Hillsdale said on Saturday.

More identity politics chit.

Someone’s always perpetually offended.

[the OlLine Rebel]

Oh lighten up you uptight self-conscious jackasses.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

It’s always the white bread libtards who are offended by the use of the word “redskin.”

It doesn’t bother the redskins at all. :D

So...first they change the name, and then they mis-state the basis for the outrage.

I’m sitting here eating some Redskin Spanish Peanuts, and having more fun than a barrel of monkeys. #NotaVictim!

[FlingWingFlyer]

(((YAWN))) Whiners again.

A few years ago, I would have taken this a little seriously because, you know, who wants to be a jerk and offend anyone?

But it is clear that the “victims” will never be satisfied. Their victimhood is a weapon. They are not really offended in a meaningful way. They found a tool and they use the tool so that they can win and dominate.

No more.

I don’t care what they think. That game is over.

This one couple Cralls out from their hole and it becomes a news story? Here’s an idea, Nat: don’t order it. Don’t go there at all if you are going to be triggered.

What about “Red Man” chewing tobacco? That would really get these lefties whooping!

[goldstategop]

Fried chicken, collard greens, blackeyed peas and watermeleon are blatantly racist, too.

[Alas Babylon!]

These here aren't Spanish but Italians!

[TaMoDee]

The High School mascot at the Navajo Reservation high school at Red Mesa, AZ is the “Redskins”. They are VERY PROUD of this name.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

But everybody hatin’ on Ole Whitey is just hunky dory.

[goldstategop]

The real issue is white people aren’t supposed to appropriate other people’s food.

That’s politically incorrect and also represents cultural microaggression.

When in doubt, ask first.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

OK, no problem. But somehow I don't think "Blood Thirsty Savages Ice Cream" is going to sell nearly as well.

[rockinqsranch]

Seems to me only Liberals are offended.

[UnwashedPeasant]

White Leftists pretending to be offended so they can act paternalistic and feel superior.

The vast majority of real Red Injuns do not care about this stuff.
