t sounds like our lovely state legislature & governor are going to sign a bill that will force high schools to no longer use the "Redskin" name. Is the state going to take the nil for all the change these schools will have to make?

Of course not....why should they have to worry about the ramification.  That's our Job...the sheeple....

It is reassuring to know that our leadership at the State level is focused on the big problems....

Stupid is as stupid does ...

Oklahoma
US State
Oklahoma is a state located in the South Central United States. Oklahoma is the 20th most extensive and the 28th most populous of the 50 United States. The state's name is derived from the Choctaw words okla and humma, meaning "red people".

The Choctaw, Chickasaw, and Creek people share many common words in their language.

Tulare: Oklahomans! Chowchilla: Red People ...

I would suggest the Fighting Hedgehogs, but you know that PETA would sue you for the use of an inflammatory word such as "Fighting" in the same sentence as the wonderful little creature known as the Hedgehog.

Well...yesterdays vote got it a little closer to the Governors desk....LORD HELP US !!!!!

I found this bite in a water article....seemed to fit this fight too....

Keith Harbeck, of the California Pool and Spa Association, told the board Tuesday that it is destructive to turn industries into symbols of water waste, including almond growers, water bottlers and golf courses.

"Finger-pointing has been particularly painful because folks pick whatever is symbolic," said Felicia Marcus, chairwoman of the board. "It's a collective issue that we must all rise to."

Looks like you had some "horse thief Indians."  With that fact pattern, there's got to be a catchy (derogatory) name you can come up with that ties directly to Chowchilla's history.

"The name "Chowchilla" is derived from the Native American tribe of Chauchila (the spelling is inconsistent in reference guides) Yokut Indians which once lived in the area. The name itself evidently translates as "Murderers" and is apparently a reference to the warlike nature of the Chauchila tribe. The Chauchila Indians were inadvertently responsible for the first white men "discovering" Yosemite Valley, which occurred when the Chauchila Indians were being pursued by a band of whites."

Man..., the possibilities are endless.  I'd go with Indians.  Or Injuns.  Or Tribe.  Keep it simple and historically accurate.

I saw this a couple days ago:

The federal government, which has "Tomahawk" cruise missiles and "Apache", Blackhawk", "Kiowa" and "Lakota" helicpoters- and used the code name "Geronimo" in the attack that "killed" Osama bin Laden, officially objects to the name of the Washington Redskins.
