A great motto in life is never to be offended when no offense is intended. There is obviously no offense intended by the Redskins, and the country knows that, which is why across the spectrum the support for the name is overwhelming.
For those of you who are not Redskin fans or DC area residents, the Washington Post has made it their mission to get the Redskins to change the name. The Post columnists hate the Redskins team and everything about them, ironically. It's a DC thing I guess, I was a long time resident.
Redskins name is not a divisive issue
"A December 2013 survey conducted by Public Policy Polling found that 71 percent of Americans were in favor of the Washington Redskins keeping the name. A July 2014 poll conducted by Research and Polling in New Mexico, in the middle of Indian country, received the same response: Seventy-one percent said the National Football League team should keep the name. Only 18 percent said it should be changed. And according to Research and Polling, there was no statistically significant difference in opinions among Hispanics, Caucasians or Native Americans. Two other national polls had very similar results"
