Redskins are changing their name. The NFL supports it. Advertisers like Nike stopped selling Redskins memorabilia. Fed Ex has threatened to take its name off the stadium they play in. Others will undoubtedly jump on the bandwagon. Some will say its just folding to political correctness. Others will say it's a privately owned team and the owner(s) can do as they choose. Discuss...

How’s about Palefaces or Whiteyes or Speakswithforkedtoungs or some of the other derogatory term the Indians used to keep us crackers down all these years?

Nope. You underestimate my loyalty to my 2 chosen professions.

And I hope this "business decision" backfires. HARD. You appease a few players/viewers to piss off the rest?

so, for anyone who never heard, the Redskins name has been challenged for something like 40 years. It's front and center now because much of America has accepted that it's now time to consider the subject of all things racially sensitive.

Every big issue has it's window. This one has been simmering for decades.

It's not at all accurate to describe what has happened in recent weeks as mostly violence and destruction. That is what makes the headlines of what conservatives have been calling media driven sensationalism and fake news for 3 plus years now.

The peaceful way that far and away most of the protests have been pulled off may be too bland for ratings grabbing headlines, now is not the time for conservatives reverse course and point to the six o'clock news to make their point.

I'm not one to track polls, but it seems all of them show a massive amount of Americans, both liberal and conservative, have decided it's time to address the racial elephant in the room. Numbers that destroy any exaggerated margin of error.

People from every point of view have been complaining for years that it never gets "fixed". This is an opportunity to figure it out.

Let's not close the window. Get it all on the table and get it done.

Sorry, Frank... but the media hasn't been focused on the violence. In fact, the media has claimed the protests "peaceful" and yes, some of them were. The one in Temecula was. Busiest intersection was lined with people (VAST majority teens and early 20's) and they did not impede traffic... likely because they knew people here wouldn't stand for that crap.

That was not the case for the majority of my county... remember, my friends and former partners are cops/corrections. There was violence and vandalism. Portland? Seattle? Chicago? NY? Detroit? Murders are up... violent protests. Statues being torn down. Monuments defaced. Buildings and businesses burned. This is not peaceful, home-slice.

People are sick of the shenanigans... and this BS is likely getting Trump re-elected. Congratulations to them.

The polls show 70% of Americans wants to address these issues- according to TV news I heard yesterday morning.

Well,she did get 3mil more votes but the E-College got her. To make individual votes count,each candidate should recieve the % of E-College votes in each state according to the total votes. The reps will never go for it though. In the 3 elections won by the loser of the popular vote,the rep candidate beat a dem candidate. X Frying pan

This, the justice system need to be re evaluated. I don’t usually post to any of the political crap, but I remember when St. Louis police chief Sam Dotson was taking about criminal going into the system for fairly serious charges then be right back out on the streets in a week. Now i now few will agree, because guilty! Murders and child molesters and thief’s have “human rights”. But I say bring back the hangings in town square and firing squads, cut the hands off damn useless thieves, instead of paying for them to sit in a prison for how every many years feeding them and wasting tax payer money on someone that will never be a viable asset to society.

Mike, you are aware this is the "justice" system of our worst enemies, right?

I believe when we do what our enemies do, they have won the war.

My major was criminal justice, Frank. In order for a punishment to be effective it has to be certain, swift, and severe. (I've said this a few times before). Our justice system is none of those things. Sadly, we treat prisoners better than our populace. Medical care, MH care, recreation, commissary, 3 squares a day, programs, schools, classes... for people who victimize the rest of us. What in the actual f--k do we think that's gonna do?

They get out and go right back to doing criminal things... because they don't fear the repercussions. It's camp. We really need to make the work for their keep.

Prison is supposed to rehabilitate. It punishes as well. I mean, being locked up away from everyone and everything you love IS punishment. Along with all the racial tensions and divisions and fearing for your life everyday is no fun. However,the way prisons are run is the problem and cause for residivism.
Plus the way society treats Ex-Cons is another reason for recidivism. You can't get a job,so what's a person to do but repeat what you know best. X Shame on you
