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.

Worse is the "sloppy joe". Macro aggression against those named Joseph and Josephine.

Not to mention an outright smear against the holy bean that give us such joy.

Yum! A few drops of Sesame Seed Oil, a shake of Morton Salt & Black Pepper = a nice meal or side dish.

As an Indian, I’m good with it. My Shiprock High School mascot is the Chieftains which shows an Indian with a headdress.

Im also good with the Washington Redskins football team, the Cleveland Indians mascot and Redman tobacco ( I don’t do tobacco.) I admire and own Savage Rifles because they are accurate.

Next time you all meet a liberal, tell them you heard from an actual indian that he is not offended by these things.

And I declare Elizabeth Warren is not Indian.

The White American Leftist is the most pathetic excuse of American let alone fellow human. They instigate and cause most of the problems not only in this country but around the world. They seek to destroy everything not akin to the Liberal agenda. They have been doing this for well over 100 years in America and their act is so tiresome.

Drink a pale ale and all of a sudden you’re a white supremacist.

Oklahoma translated means “Land of the Red Man”.

That’s a European version of the event. The Indian version shows them laying down a path of rose petals as they escort the woman back to her people.

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

Wait until one of the Perpetually Offended happens to stumble across a package of Land O Lakes butter!

Do you ever hear any "wide fellows" complaining about this brand?

All of these “I’m offended” episodes are one-and-done’s. Big media splash for a day then nada from there on...

Maybe it’s an old Indian recipe handed down through generations to Elizabeth Warren.

Might be good following a hearty meal of Oklahoma crab

To make that one even worse, search on youtube for land o lake butter tricks (no quotes), and see all the adolescent suggestions that come back.

people make hundreds of thousands lying about being an Indian to the oldest university in the country. They get power and publicity from the lie and no punishment and these fools worry about the color of ice cream.

"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.

Why this contorted sentence structure? Why not speak more directly: "I have personally polled 17 of the total of 326 Native organizations, and they told me that they frown upon the use of the term 'Redskin' and also consider it blatantly..."?

That would allow us to fact-check her statement.

Regards,
