How many pioneers, cowboys and military personnel have been killed by Indians? This goes both ways and Indians have not been singularly been pointed out for any of their atrocities that include war parties that would kill, capture and, get this, enslave rival tribe members. It's in the history books and it is history whether we like it or not. We can't "delete" that from American history. But, what is happening is that there is a movement to erase systemic black oppression going on, which I do embrace, which has gone off the tracks in some areas. Renaming the Redskins being one of them. Please people, black oppression has to stop, period! Bad cops need to be fired or put in jail because they are bad to all colors of people which includes whites. We've experienced that in our own family. But, grasping at changing the name of the Redskins is a deflection of what is really going on. It does not erase in history the inhumanity of men towards other men. Start by putting these police offers on trial for their crimes. Put them in general population to serve their entire sentence. Take their property, freeze their accounts, take their assets and give to the families of those whose life they have taken or whose rights they have violated. Start with that and stop deflecting to the name of the Redskins has to be changed. Now, what happened to those 28 "hate it" votes that were there yesterday? Someone, with a political agenda, is playing with the numbers to not reflect accurately what the readers think about the topic of this story!
