PC Wackjobs Win Yet Another One

The next thing is the banning of children dressing up on Halloween as Indians is my guess. But First we have to wait for the do-gooders to deem dressing up as a cowboy just as offensive as dressing up as an Indian supposedly is.

Oh yeah I forgot, insulting the white man is OK with them as we all know they deserve it.

So now another long time Illinois tradition is finally scalped after long tedious legal battles with the ever-present do-gooders making sure nobody's feelings ever get hurt in this supposedly new and improved completely wussified and weak-kneed America;

Land of the Weenies and Home of the Gays..

Maybe another tax free multi-million dollar Indian run casino would have made everyone happier instead.

STLtoday - News - Illinois News: "URBANA, Ill. (AP) -- The University of Illinois will drop its 81-year-old American Indian mascot, Chief Illiniwek, following the last men's basketball home game of the season on Wednesday, officials said.

The move makes the school eligible to host postseason NCAA championship events.

The NCAA in 2005 deemed Illiniwek -- portrayed by buckskin-clad students who dance at home football and basketball games and other athletic events -- an offensive use of American Indian imagery and barred the university from hosting postseason events." read more
