It's a joke. These mascots are meant to honor the Indian people not offend them but whatever take every Indian name off of everything and forget they existed.

They act all oppressed but they killed each other and took land from each other for years before the White Man came into the scene

As an Irish person I want Notre Dame to remove their Leprechaun!

I grew up in Hanover. Our team was the Indians. It's now the Hanover Hawks.

I lived in Grafton almost twenty years. They were the Indians, too. Now they're the Grafton Gators

political correctness sucks

I have to wonder where the name Gators came from for Grafton? I know the students there voted on it from what the google machine tells me, but, gators? Was it just for the alliteration?

Don’t joke, there is someone pushing to have them stop using the fighting Irish mascot. Someone even paid for a poll and it was apparently the 4th most offensive sports mascot:

In that case we should petition to have Joe Biden removed as Presidential mascot as well!

I always thought Key West should be called the Fighting Manatees.

probably. What else starts with 'G'?

 

[Penniepup1]

Some school better change their mascot to the Woodcocks.

Or the Timberdoodles.

Or the Fish Women

Grafton Ginas?

One of my shooting buddies was a football player for Natick and fought HARD against them changing the name from Redmen.

 

[Dadstoys]

No one invites me to these get togethers , but if they did the first question would be "So this is really what you idiots spend you time on."
"Kill yourself"

They get massive exposure and money, I wonder how long before they cave.

Did you know the Natick Redmen weren't name after Indians. The town color is Red though that's why all the town trucks are painted red.

Let's keep going, and pretty soon it'll be like they never existed

 

[peterk123]

I'm Hungarian. You know what really offends me?

Uggh. I got nothing. My peeps just go with the flow. But......

How about reparations? Ya that's right you know why?

Damn it. I still got nothing.

As per usual our illustrious state legislators are working on something that totally has no bearing on real life. I’m sure if asked, a Native American would not give a crap if a school was using an Indian term. Nevermind the over 20000 illegal immigrants being put up all over the state with no accountability of the costs. They are more concerned about them being audited and hiding what they do from the voters. Saying “vote them out” in this state ain‘t gonna work. And now, with all the new undocumented democrats that have been let in we will be a one party state for 100 years.

They maybe oughta get on the state flag then.

[mcshooter]

Let's all open our own private schools. My school mascot is going to be a Honky Cracker. But that's most likely fine with these leftist lemmings.

Mine will be Katie Morgan

 

[mothybee]

When's PETA gonna chime in about all these animal names?

 

[FisherTech]

Billerica was also the Indians!

Yes it is!! Class of 1973

 

[REM870]

Billerica was also the Indians!

Still is !! 85.

The lying Khunt said shed like to see a school mascot the Fishermen. What's Gloucester High School?

 

[FalArAk]

I'm wondering how many of these activists are actually indigenous. I'm betting very few, if any.

Still waiting for the Celtics to pronounce it correctly THEN to remove it as a mascot. I feel oppressed.

Like most things bad, its fat middle aged white females with a bob cut that are most likely behind this.

Bill Bans Native-American Mascots At Mass. Public Schools - Boston News, Weather, Sports | WHDH 7News

The 23 schools in Massachusetts that use an image of an indigenous person as their school mascot would have to start looking for new names<a class="excerpt-read-more" href="https://whdh.com/news/bill-bans-native-american-mascots-at-mass-public-schools/">Read More</a>

Wait till people find out the name Massachusetts was an Indian tribe. Oh the horror

I heard it the other day. A spokesperson said they want it a State law because of the pushback at the local level. Some pussy Indian thinks he’s disrespected, he’s just a Squaw without a dress.

 

[ProGun]

No worries. There are plenty of ghey names like commanders...so lame. I might be wrong but think that's what they renamed the Redskins, or was that the Indians? Whatever, don't care. I tuned out all professional sports some years ago. Don't miss it.

 

[71montess]

Walpole high was the Rebels, then they built low income housing and the minorities moved in and started complaining.
