Greeley Colorado--
University of Northern Colorado-- A Native American group has decided to name their intramural basketball team 'the Fighting Whities". This is to show how racist it is to name an athletic team after Native Americans. If you don't believe me,I got this from;Omaha World Herald/midlands section. |
|
It should be called "The Conquering Whities", after all, we kicked their asses there and back.
I like it. |
|
Don't you mean the Celtics-well, nevermind.
I think that this is awesome. When no one gets all pissed off about this, it will just show how dumb the PC arguement is. |
|
Reckon they can get [b]Angelina Jolie[/b] to be their mascot?
Hell, I know I'd buy a season ticket![:D] Eric The(AnySport,AnyTime)Hun[>]:)] |
|
I just checked their web site, but there's nothing about it there, nor are there any jerseys for sale.[:(]
I'll have to keep an eye on them.... |
|
I think that the jerseys would be prime items for a ..............................
GROUP PURCHASE! |

Quoted: I just gotta have one of their jerseys!!! View Quote LOL!!! You beat me to it dude. Email me if you find one of those jerseys! I go to U of North Dakota and there's hippies CONSTANTLY bitching about the "Fighting Sioux" name. Some of us Aviation Majors are gonna protest the name of some of our airplanes, since everyone wants to make it an issue. (Piper "Seminole," "Warrior," etc...) [whacko] |

The [b]"The Fighting Whities"[/b]. I like it !
Got a [i]Ring[/i] to it. |

I demand a state and federal investigation and also want the racist in charge of this hurtful[>(] damaging [>(]anti-multicultural [>(]evil plan to be fired. I have white friends, and they are good people, there are good ones and bad ones in all races. I'm so hurt, [>(] [>(] [>(]

The Fighting Whities? Is that supposed to be offensive? I'm not offended in the least bit. I guess I'm not PC enough. [;D]

I just /gotta/ go and get me one or 6 of their jerseys :) Can I have a "The Killer Krauts" team, too? Here's the mascot: [img]http://www.mein-bochum.de/landser2.jpg[/img] |

Quoted: I think that this is awesome. When no one gets all pissed off about this, it will just show how dumb the PC arguement is. View Quote Absolutely!! I LIKE the "Fighting Whities". Fits me to a T. [:D] Even if they TRIED to use it in a degratory manner - I'd still be damn proud of being called a "Fighting Whitey", "Hammering Honky", "Conquering Caucasian" or "Whitey Warrior" |

Quoted: I just gotta have one of their jerseys!!! View Quote Now that's funny...I'd LOVE a Fightin' Whities jersey! Then again, nobody would know the real meaning and I'd be lynched by the hyper-PC/Million Mom/defenders of the world crowd. Wonder what the mascot looks like? |

So why didn't the article give an address and prices for jerseys with this awesome logo? [edited to add] I would love to hear the cheerleaders, "Let's go whities lets go!" Music to my white cracker ears |

One of the dipshits they interviewed referred to Native Americans as 'Indians'.
He's never going to make it as a professional victim if he doesn't learn to keep the buzz-words straight. |
|
Quoted: What about the "Hammering Honkies"?? View Quote Maybe the "Cracker Boys" |
|
Their mascot is a big white fat guy. WMAL was discussing it on the way into work this morning.
Btw, A black radio station in DC spouts all kinds of racial things. Whitie this, whitie that. They can say that but other stations can't say "black" |

Their mascot is a big white fat guy. View Quote Gee the *Indian* mascots make it appear that whoever chose that mascot chose it out of admiration for the Indian "warrior spirit" or something along those lines. Not because Indians are fat, lazy alcoholics, who sit idle on the Res dependent on government handouts. I am not saying all Indians do this. But to use Indians' "good points" for a mascot, versus Indians using some whatever bad point or cliche for their "whitey" mascot? What's up with that, other than they are deliberately trying to offend? Who cares? I ain't offended, they're going to have to try harder. Gooooooooo Whiteys! Or Whities! Or Whatevers! |
|
I'm honored that they want to name their team after me!
I want a jersey too! |

View Quote So what do you think your relatives will be like 500 years from now if they have had everything taken from them. Yes Everything, land, religion, languge, all forms of culture, moved into concentraction camps and dealing with forced castration, killed with impunity by locals. If all that happens and your decendants are still good honest hardworking white christian folks then you can complain about how much better you are than the dirty stinking savages. Until then why dont you go back to Europe and take your slaves with you!!!! |

Relax lucas, perhaps you can tell my Indian ex-g/f how much of a bigot I am. In spite of your rush to "be offended" (gee how often do we see that?) I think you understand my point. At least I HOPE you do.

What's sad is when 'they' wear the jersey, it's a justified social statement. If I wear one, it's a racial provocation and VERY unPC.
[>(] Gawd, I WANT one! [bounce] |
|
Thank goodness they didn't name themselves the "tighty whities."
|

How come when I first read this I thought "white supremist" article and was being prepared to be embarrassed to be white, but when I read the whole thing I think it's cute and want a jersey?
Also I think we should declare all treaties with the Native Americans null and void and start the wars over again and accept nothing but unconditional surrender. There is no one, [b][size=6]absolutely no one, including Native Americans before Chris Columbus sailed[/size=6][/b] that lived any where without kicking some one else's ass out of there first. |
|
How about the "Fighting Whitey Tighties". Does anybody out there have a website to the school so I can e-mail them for a request on a flag or a banner?
I like to add these things to my Mexican, Native American and Spaniard heritage collection. I find the "ground breaking" news very comical. signed, Paul(I'm a Native American)Gene |

If there's an AR15er out there that can get these jerseys I want 5. Payment can be made any way you want.
I'd love to be a fighting whitey (esp. since I'm part cherokee)... Edited to add: It's pretty fucking funny that we have people on the board griping about us liking the 'fighting whities'. They're native americans, and it's a dig against us 'whities'... WTF??? |

Other "racists" team names: Fightin Irish, Flying Dutchmen, Brittons, Vikings, Celtics.

The old Cherokee Chief sat in his reservation hut, smoking the ceremonial pipe, eyeing the two US government officials sent to interview him.
"Chief Two Eagles," one official began, "you have observed the white man for many generations, you have seen his wars and his products, you have seen all his progress, and all his problems." The chief nodded. The official continued, "Considering recent events, in your opinion, where has the white man gone wrong?" The chief stared at the government officials for over a minute, and then calmly replied. "When white man found the land, Indians were running it. No taxes. No debt. Plenty buffalo. Plenty beaver. Women did most of the work. Medicine man free. Indian men hunted and fished all the time" The chief smiled, and added quietly, "White man dumb enough to think he could improve system like that." Count me in for a jersey also!! |

maybe a trip to Greely is in order if I can find out how to get one

some things would cause fear, such as an armed group of Fighting Whities reinforced with Vikings.

Our Turnpike Authority signs consisted of a Pilgrim hat with an Indian arrow through it. A few years a go, at the cost of millions to taxpayers a new Turnpike symbol was found PC enough that kept the Indians and 'whitey' at the casino's. But I'll take one shirt with, 'The Fighting White Wimp's' brought to you by the Kennedys, and their running dog clique.... Gib187th....Love, A 'Commie' for Mommy |
