I don’t think she’s an idiot at all. She is a revolutionary. Her mission is to find cracks in our Republic, and then exploit those cracks.

And her attack on the Texas Rangers name was not such a reach. Other revolutionaries have been very successful in changing names and removing statues. So why not take a shot at the Texas Rangers?

It looks like Ms. Attiah has lost this round. But make no mistake about it. She will not go away. She’ll take a breather, then focus on another target.

She herself might not be so dangerous. But her movement is very, very dangerous.

No, they are New Leftists showing their true colors. When you see something like this that appears so nutty, think - it's The New Left.

It's all about deconstructing America and weakening it for Marxism Socialism: Communism if they can get it.

Biden did one yesterday: ” rip the roots of systematic racism out of this country.”. Just take out the words systematic racism (calling America Racist) and you will see:

” rip the roots... out of this country.”

It's the sign of The New Left.

What is wrong with naming the Washington team after russet potatoes? They’re much more tasty than regular potatoes.

And when was the Lone Ranger ever cruel and racist towards Tonto, his faithful helper, his “Kimosavee”? They were bosom buddies until that time that they were surrounded by hostile Indians and Tonto said “what do you mean ‘we’?” Who was the ‘racist’ then? Huh? Huh? Huh? Tonto was a fair weather Kimosavee.

"to know the full history of the Texas Rangers Democrat party is to understand that the team’s name is not so far off from being called the Texas Klansmen party."

It's surprising she thinks this way, as most real Africans who immigrate to America don't usually fall for the "whoa is me" bullcrap.

‘Gets Slammed By Critics’...this time. Let the idea sink in for a few months, and the next article will have more support. And, next year, a new outcry to change the name will begin. Rinse, repeat, until goal achieved.

“They came for the Redskins and the Indians. Tomorrow they will take away Texas Rangers and Dallas Cowboys.”

What about the Jets? A team named after a fossil fuel guzzling mode of travel.

How about the 49ers? Named after a source of pure greed, gold rush.

Reminding me back when Rush used to do the PC football picks each week.

Some people here should get a life. This was just a silly idea from a silly person and when they do things like that, they end up making their cause a laughingstock among most people (which certainly seems to be the case now).

You could mention environmental issues involving the Toronto Maple Leafs and Winnipeg Jets and Nashville Predators and even the Edmonton Oilers. Then there’s racial stereotyping with the Vancouver Canucks and Montreal Canadiens.

Black wives do matter.

Problem is, Blacks don’t get married anymore. That has led to fatherless children and incredible black-on-black violence.

Where? The majority of journalists are indoctrinated in the higher learning phase.

The developed gene pool that exhibit critical thinking is few and far between So when you have one of these indoctrinated loons in positions of authority, this is what you get.

It is like having a “diversity coach” sitting at the head of the hiring table.
