In Montgomery County Maryland SSR, the County is making a small, low population rural school called the Poolesville Indians change their name....in the populated suburban affluent section of the county the Sherwood Warriors are being left alone (their logo is a the FSU Seminol Arrowhead). Somebody told me this was not altered as it represents Sherwood Forest. So, I guess we cant interpret that white violence is OK as long as it is criminal and show to be stealing from the rich and giving to the poor. FYI, the state of Maryland has weighed in supporting this and are investigating about 14 schools names and logos.
