Because everything is racist to them ... that’s why.
I’m sure these are carefully orchestrated campaigns by Sleeping Giant. By picking ONE target, you can apply a lot of force, and that one target won’t get any allies out of fear.
I read about this this morning. I didn’t realize that there was a race of rangers.
“the team name “must go” because of its sordid history”
Humanity itself has a “sordid history”. What’s Karen’s final solution to that problem?
There are many sports nicknames which are offensive to someone.
We have dealt with Indian nicknames for years. This thing with the Redskins has been percolating for years.
Pressures will come to Kansas City Chiefs, Chicago Black Hawks, Cleveland Indians, Atlanta Braves, and any other Indian names still out there.
And other names are offensive if people choose to be offended.
Notre Dame Fighting Irish is offensive to Irish.
Boston Celtics is offensive to the real Celtic people.
Las Vegas Raiders, Pittsburgh Pirates, Tampa Bay Buccaneers celebrate criminal activity.
Dallas Cowboys is offensive to real cowboys.
New Orleans Saints, San Diego Padres, and Los Angeles Angels are offensive to the Catholic church and Catholic people.
New York Yankees is offensive to southerners.
You can find something wrong with almost any sports nickname if you have too much time on your hands.
“One riot, one Ranger...”
Pirates were bad people ... let’s change the Raiders and Buccaneers names too.
And I’ll bet a LOT of the original gold rushers were racist too, so let’s get rid of the 49ers.
Large lives matter ... no more Giants or Titans.
And for PETA’s sake (pun intended), no more Lions, Bengals, Dolphins, Eagles, Ravens, Cardinals, Seahawks, Rams, Broncos, Colts, Panthers or Falcons.
And surely Buffalo Bill was a racist ... better change that one too.
And the left thinks everyone in Texas is racist, so no more Texans or Cowboys.
The woke need their own country. If we can no longer defend this one from them, we will have to find another.
Ping.
Each time they win, they gain power — regardless of whether it is a statue, a street name, a city name, a building name, a sports team name.
Whether they win or lose on a particular ‘concern’, they will wake up tomorrow with the intent of going after something/someone else.
They will never satisfied. NEVER.
Look at how many cower at their coming.
When will people wake up and realize that the anarchists are going to be targeting and destroying EVEYTHING in our society. Talk about frogs in a pot of water. They are just starting, and they are unchecked. Don’t count on the GOP to save the country.
They’ll cave.
Ya know, Socialism/Marxism/Communism has been far, far more murderous than the Texas Rangers.
If G.W. Bush still owned the Rangers, he’d probably jump to comply, particularly if his best buds the Obamas weighed in.
Although I would agree with the WaPo op-ed writer that there are some bad things in the history of the Texas Rangers, that is also true for the democrat party. Until she starts saying that the democrat party needs to change its name for the sins of the past, I will call out the double standard.
Mob lives matter (so long as you let them RULE/RUIN your life)
CIVIIZATION
Civilization is the progress toward a society of privacy. The savage’s whole existence is public, ruled by the laws of his tribe. Civilization is the process of setting man free from men. (mob, collective, gang, horde, government, etc.)
The precondition of a civilized society is the barring of physical force from social relationships—thus establishing the principle that if men wish to deal with one another, they may do so only by means of reason: by discussion, persuasion and voluntary, uncoerced agreement.
The necessary consequence of man’s right to life is his right to self-defense. In a civilized society, force may be used only in retaliation and only against those who initiate its use.

What’s that you say?, they’ll be calling you a radical, a criminal, DEPLORABLE...

if baseball cares more about left winged trolls than law enforcement I will have to stop watching baseball forever. Baseball fans are white. If baseball does not know which side they are on. Forget them.
This is why you never, ever apologize or acquiesce to the left for anything.
I thought this was a joke. No fucking way dear god. Lol the New York Rangers may be next
