But like I said, it's a difference to me. I'm not asking you to agree.
I'm sorry "Fighting Irish" for "Notre Dame".... Tell me if you don't get how the Irish don't fit there.
Just a list of some of the presidents of Notre Dame: Dillon, Corby, Morrissey, Cavanaugh, Burns, Walsh, O'Donnell, O'Hara, another O'Donnell, another Cavanaugh, the half-Irish Hesburgh, and Malloy.
Though founded by a French sect, the school is traditionally Irish Catholic.
Im a direct descendent of Captain Henry Morgan (really) and I find ECUs use of the pirate image offensive. I demand you cease.
You're in luck! Strutting Pee Dee hasn't been used in 20 years. 3 logos back.
Change your offensive avatar. Why do you make light of my ancestors that suffered occupational injuries and disfigurement
Or
Maybe I'm not a crybaby and dgaf

The harm is the idea that some Native American logos are racist but other Native American logos are not racist and the dividing line on what is racist or what is not racist changes in every examination.

Pirates doesn't fit in. You choose to be a pirate. You have no say in being Indian or Irish (though most Americans of Irish heritage could tell people they were German and no one would know the difference unless their last name gave it away).
My immigrant friend from London thinks Americans are really weird with the whole I'm German or Scottish or English or Italian thing. They don't consider those to be ethnic groups, only nationalities. If you are black and were born in Manchester and live in England you are English period nothing else. If your family immigrated from Italy to Finland and you are a Finnish citizen you are Finnish not Italian.

Not always. If you were captured by pirates and a specific skill the pirates needed you were impressed just like they did in the actual navies of the time. Bartholomew Roberts, better known as Black Bart, was impressed and Blackbeard impressed ships doctors and carpenters when he captured them.
