Native American Attacked Over Redskins Shirt

[lostinblue 1,989]

Barrett Dahl is Native American and a member of both the Choctaw and Sac and Fox Nations. He is also autistic. He says he wore the Redskins shirt because he was in Washington D.C. and because he sees it as a sense of cultural pride. However, when he showed up wearing it at a Pow Wow that's when the trouble started

He says within seconds of sitting down he was approached by William Mendoza.

“He comes to me and calls me the name weetard not retard, weetard. ‘You’re a weetard for not understanding Redskins is offensive’,” said Dahl on Wednesday. The incident happened back on October 30 of last year.

Mendoza is the Executive Director of the White House Initiative of American Indian and Alaska Native Education, and an outspoken opponent of using Native American images as mascots

I can understand the term redskin being offense

Seminole, Braves etc. Much to do about nothing

Being called a weetard is pretty vicious, or perhaps using "attacked" is laying it on a little thick.

I am very confused by this. Is it a sparkly green phallus between two fancy trash can lids?

The Geoduck Fight Song

Words and music by Malcolm Stilson, 1971

Go, Geoducks go,

Through the mud and the sand,

let’s go.

Siphon high, squirt it out,

swivel all about,

let it all hang out.

Go, Geoducks go,

Stretch your necks when the tide

is low

Siphon high, squirt it out,

swivel all about,

let it all hang out.

Does the edible seawater clam have a beard?

This has done nothing for my opinion that there is a large, anthropomorphized, sparkly green artificial phallus involved.
