It was originally a cabin on the bank in the swamp built by a guy named Lorenzo who was aided by Stigwanish ( a Seneca Chief ) or he would have starved and or perished in floodwaters. Lorenzo left home at 18 in CT when his mother was moving to Vermont . His father died of smallpox when he was 11 .
    That settles it then. Call them the Cleveland dyslexic Jews and be done with it.

    Come now JM, is JM trying to claim that he is outraged over these cartoons and protest the use of these cartoons? Oh Please. Grow up. He wouldn't and none of us would. It is selective outrage by those SJWs who wish to claim the perpetual eternal victim-hood of the SJWs, and those who claim SJW "high brow" (as JM terms it) social authoritarianism.

    Apparently JM does "give a rat's ass" as he take the time to defend the SJW "high brow" authoritarianism over a cartoon mascot ( and neg rep me simply for expressing a viewpoint). Certainly the most important issue of the day of course for the public to get riled up over and protest, right.

    Cleveland should not even be there , Stigwanish was foolish and felt pity for the swarthy young Lorenzo who was well liked as an honest man. I would at least give Chief Wahoo a bloody blond scalp to go with his winning smile . LOL

    With a 3-hit shutout, and a four-game winning streak, Wahoo's tribe leads the AL Central by a game at 9-7 record now

    btw, NHL "Blackhawks" are another of the American Indian logos/mascots as well, fwiw

    I have to disagree, there is nothing whatsoever wrong with that logo, it has never been an issue until all of this pathetic SJW silliness began cropping up on school campuses and universities across America. The Indians' logo is intended to be a fun, friendly representation of Native Americans and what MLB is itself representative of--it is not an insult or punch at them. The Indians' logo is and has been one of the most popular and recognized baseball logos--even making cinematographic appearances in Major League and Major League II.

    And let us face the reality, the Indians' logo is in now way damaging their reputation as the federal government historically has, relegating a once independent, spiritual warrior people into dime-slot casino pimps and substance abusing mobile-home reservationists.

    Oh yea, and where is the outrage for how blatantly how in your face this one is (the name itself is even derogatory):

    This was also once very popular and well recognized.



    Ironically I was going to put up a parody of the Cleveland Indians, which was the Birmingham n*ggers, but the SJW autocensor at RPF wouldn't allow it. If you're so against political correctness why aren't you complaining about that? I agree that the name Redskins is offensive. And people are arguing about that too. Now here's something about free speech you and others don't seem to get. You have the right to say redskin or n*gger (well...you can't say n*gger at RPF apparently), use logos that others find offensive whether it is chief Whapahoo or some blackface minstrel, and I have a right to say I don't like it if I don't like it and the free market can decide the outcome. True personal story. When I was at an overwhelming majority white high school in the 1980s, the confederate flag was very popular. Being greatly outnumbered I decided to make peace with what they called their "Southern Heritage." Once one of my friends even said "I know it would have been bad for you...but we could have won the war if.." I was also a major computer geek at the time. Once in the computer lab I saw another boy using a graphics program to draw a swastika. I was like "Why the hell are you doing that?" His response? "My ancestors are German. This is part of my heritage." I started to respond, then realized how stupid it was for me to be upset about a symbol that was used in the oppression of Jews (and yes I know that originally the swastika is a Buddhist symbol), while I gave the confederate flag a pass. Now I don't go around railing against the confederate flag (or the swastika for that matter) but I understand the rationale behind those that do and defend their first amendment right to express their viewpoint. Same with the Cleveland Indians logo. It's obvious why some people find it offensive. The Minnesota Vikings logo was not designed to be something to be laughed at. The Cleveland Indians logo was clearly designed to be something to be laughed at just like blackface was designed to be something to be laughed at.

    And just to show I'm not an SJW, here's a version of the Birmingham N*ggers that will get through RPF's SJW autocensor. Be sure and download it, make a t-shirt of it, and where it proudly through South Central LA to show how anti SJW you are.
