Quote:A hot fashion item this summer on Ontario First Nations’ reserves is a T-shirt with the lettering “Caucasians” and the grinning logo of Chief Wahoo, the much-derided mascot of the Cleveland Indians major league baseball team

Frankly, if there was more of this, people would see how dumb the controversy is.

Actually, that "satire" logo is tamer and more complimentary than official established ones out there...





But to be fair, I can understand negative reaction toward blatant "red face/skin" imagery on sports. I get why Miami U changed their nickname, but don't understand why the EMUs (Hurons) of the world changed theirs.

I'll take one of those shirts. LOL

It might not be offensive to us crackers but if you wore one in Compton or Harlem you might get your ass kicked because it hints of white pride or something along those lines.

No doubt.

First thing that came to mind was this:

So disrespectful.

Which is even FUNNIER! (more ironic)

A group of Native Americans formed a team called the Fighting Whities at a college in Colorado a few years back. Not very intimidating to their opponents, but pretty funny.

That's because you're a racist. If you weren't a racist, you'd be highly offended.
