Listen, people. We need to have a talk about a Chiefs name change at some point.

[Eureka]

Why is it that I see Redskins/Chiefs memorabilia and gear out at the rez in Northern California?

I like "The Kansas City **** You Lefties!".

How about the Kansas City Chief Executive Officers? We can still be the chiefs, it just won’t offend anyone.

C'mon keep the Chiefs and change the symbol to the Sutton Hoo helmet.

If we had to change the name I would ask for the Kings. If that didn’t work I would try to honor the Monarch’s by using their name.

[Bump]

I kind of hope they change it, especially if they change it something that sounds woke AF. The ensuing fallout would be entertaining to watch and read about.

In all honesty, this shit has to stop. What's to stop people from tearing down Lamar's statue because he could have said something stupid back in the 50's/60's? In no way, shape, or form is Chiefs derogative of Native Americans. I have two different tribes in my blood line (Osage and Cherokee), do I have a say? Why should 1% of legitimate Native Americans have more say than the 99% who are OK with it?

yeah... Chiefs is really offensive...? why in the hell would they even need to change it? based on what?

nothing.
Just another step in erasing native history. It doesnt have shit to do with it being offensive..which its not in the first place.

you can make the argument that "Redskins" is a offensive name and was a racial slur at one point. If the name Chiefs becomes offensive you might as well do away with mascot names and go with The Kansas City football team.

Aug. 22, 1812: At a Washington reception for several Native Americans, President James Madison refers to Indians as “red people” or “my red children,” prompting Little Osage Chief Sans Oreilles (No Ears) to voice his support for the administration: “I know the manners of the whites and the red skins.” Then, Sioux Chief French Crow also pledged loyalty: “I am a red-skin,but what I say is the truth, and notwithstanding I came a long way I am content, but wish to return from here.”

I shall be pleased to have you come to speak to me yourself if you pity our women and our children; and, if any redskins do you harm, I shall be able to look out for you even at the peril of my life,” Chief Mosquito said in his letter, according to a 2005 study by Ives Goddard, the Smithsonian Institution’s senior linguist emeritus.

July 20, 1815: After tangling with famed explorer-turned-Missouri Territory Gov. William Clark, Meskwaki Chief Black Thunder gives a speech that was printed in the Western Journal in St. Louis. “I turn to all,” the chief is reported as saying, “red skins and white skins, and challenge an accusation against me.”

Sept. 25, 1863: The Winona Daily Republican in Minnesota features an announcement that uses the term “redskin” as a pejorative: “The State reward for dead Indians has been increased to $200 for every red-skin sent to Purgatory. This sum is more than the dead bodies of all the Indians east of the Red River are worth.”

its pretty much like getting upset at the term "reerun... you can turn any term negative if you want.

indians used the term on themselves.
go back to calling themselves the Braves, I wouldnt mind that. But a drastic change to please pc propaganda? **** that
