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.

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]

Kinda like how I was going to get a t-shirt the said "90% Society" but that would have meant I hate fags!

    ...that shirt would be the perfect match for my "Fighting Whiteys" jersey!

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"

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?

Holy crap that is funny!

So why didn't the article give an address and prices for jerseys with this awesome logo?

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.

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"

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!

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.

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.

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???

Here in the Peoples Republic of Mass. 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....
