MOO

I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but we do have some sneaky enemies who play the short game and the long game, from the North Korean counterfeit Superdollar to these guys:

Let's blame them.
 
Let me ask you this, what's so wrong about having a picture of a native american, African american etc. on a logo/advertisement/product?

As long as it's not being done in a derogatory manner, I don't see the problem.

Also, do you happen to see these same groups/organizations getting riled up when there is a white person being depicted on a logo/product?... And, if not, than why do they have a problem when it is a person of another race?
Once again, you missed the point. I never said there was anything right or wrong with their native american logo, an african american logo, or anything other logo. Had you read the article, you would have understood their perspective on why they are now changing the logo. Instead, your instinctive reaction was that "they caved...." The point I was making is, why do you have a strong opinion about how another company decides to run it's business? My initial question to you was, "...what other business decision or change has this company made in the history of its existence that bothers you as much as this does? The answer could have been a simple, "None"; or, you could have provided another instance when you were just a outspoken. Instead of providing another instance when you were just as outspoken, your response was that, "it really doesn't bother me."
I also followed up with 2 additional questions that were never answered either:
1. "What are we afraid of losing by giving them the benefit of the doubt and accepting it at face value?
2. "What is more important, trying to right what appears to be a wrong or your own personal political agenda?"
None of those questions were answered. I assumed that would be the case, although I was hoping I was wrong.
 
If I was 100% Indian, I'd consider it a compliment for an athletic team to call themselves the Redskins, Chiefs, etc.

There's a lot of people who realize they are very significant, or have self esteem issues, etc. They over compensate by trying to force their will on others.

In a democracy the majority rules. So be it.

Oh my goodness, Greg!!! No you did not just say that! Being referred to as a Chief is one thing. Being called Redskin is entirely something different. That's almost like saying a person should consider it a compliment being referred to as "Half-breed". Just because something may fit the description, doesn't mean it's appropriate to say publicly. LOL

In a democratic society, if the majority voted to enslave the minority, are you saying, "so be it"?

I said "If I was a100% Indian" I would consider it a compliment.

I learned a long time ago the term Chief is a derogatory term, same as Squaw, to the Native Americans. So I stopped using it. That has not harmed me in any way.
See, we all can learn something new everyday. I did not know that. I thought "Chief" was okay, simply because the head of a native American tribe was always referred to by that name on television. As a child, I had always referred to native Americans as Indians, thinking it was okay. You quickly learn that not everything you hear or see on TV is appropriate and true.
