Remember Archie Fool Bear, respected tribal elder from Standing Rock?  He dared support the UND position and found himself an instant target.  Nobody in the tribes is safe if they dare deviate from the PC path.

Nobody in the tribe is safe from speaking out against the people who make $100,000/year lobbying for federal grants and entitlements and blame all the tribe’s problems on someone else.

The war against illegal plunder has been fought since the beginning of the world. But how is… legal plunder to be identified? Quite simply. See if the law takes from some persons what belongs to them, and gives it to other persons to whom it does not belong. See if the law benefits one citizen at the expense of another by doing what the citizen himself cannot do without committing a crime. Then abolish this law without delay … If such a law is not abolished immediately it will spread, multiply and develop into a system.

Rob, I know exactly who leaned on them.

Pretty much shows that his whole controversy is a political show.

The Debate is over!  Global Whining has been confirmed.

The Indians agree - let’s wipe their culture from ours. Let’s make these people truly forgotten. Let’s not refer to them in any way. It’s not worth the problems that acknowledging them brings.

Why would you want to name a sports team after the losers?

How about The Calvary Stallions? “The Calvary’s coming” instills a sense of impending rescue and victory. Calling an athlete a stallion gets the primordal juices flowing.

Wouldn’t a statue of a horse on its back legs with a cowboy hatted soldier on board, rifle in hand, just make you feel good all over?

um, “cavalry,” my friend.  “Calvary” is where Jesus was crucified.

LIKWIDSHOE...you so “eloquently” stated

You (like the rest of your redneck brethren) couldn’t wipe your ass with your lack of culture, therefore you need to appropriate symbols, such as the Fighting Sioux, because you can’t find value in yourselves.  Try calling your favorite sports team the Fighting Biggots and show your own culture the honor you pretend you bestow on ours.

The Fighting Sioux is not honoring us...and to claim that it is unoffensive, or that people who take offense to it are “PC” or raging Liberals, is a simplistic and socially/mentally retarded argument.

You should actually consider attending college yourself and stop trying to pose as an educated person.  Your lack of intelligence shows...and you lack the basic skills to hide your ignorance, such as tact or humility (AKA the ability to admit when you are wrong).

Kade,
by the way not all fighting sioux fans are red necks, some of them are left wingers like your self.

Kade: You should actually consider attending college yourself and stop trying to pose as an educated person.  Your lack of intelligence shows...and you lack the basic skills to hide your ignorance, such as tact or humility (AKA the ability to admit when you are wrong).

That statement is just as mean spirited as you have accussed LIKWIDSHOE of being. I like how these people if we don’t agree with them call us bigoted and redneckish. So I guess we should just rule all the native Americans that are for the name as ilrelevant, Dumb, red neckish, bigoted as well.

I love UND Hockey...and the degree I received from there.  I just think the name is repugnant...and those who seek its retention are repugnant as well.

Change it back to the flickertails.  Or will that “soft” name make them a less macho team?

The name is never going to be Flickertails to weak of a name. I think we are getting ahead of ourselves.

Too weak???  Those bastards can peck out a person’s eye in about 20 seconds.

Just what sort of a pompous hypocrite trumpets his indignant offense at the use of the term “Fighting Sioux” as insulting and disparaging, only to turn right around and label those who disagree as “redneck brethren” and “bigots”?

Incidentally, most persons who manage to actually earn a college degree are sufficiently proficient with the English language to know the the word “bigot” has but one, single letter “g"… even those who’ve graduated from UND.

“Poverty of goods is easily cured; poverty of the mind is irreparable.”

I was being sarcastic Kade.

That college education you like to trumpet didn’t prepare you for simple sarcasm.

The Sioux weren’t a fighting people? News to me. I thought they were supposed to be strong warriors, but I guess not given the attitude shown by those who claim to speak for them.

You’ve convinced me Kade. The school should change the name. It’s best not to reference any American Indian in any way. It’s not worth the problems.

everyone has a right to their own opinion..no sense in bashing those with different opinions than you, darlin’.
