Fill in the blanks. Like I said, Obama, who is in charge, has gone well into transforming America. Be careful what you wish for.

In Phoenix, there was a peak in the Phoenix Mountains Preserve by the name of Squaw Peak. Native Americans had tried to get the name changed many times, since yes, this is an offensive name. This was later changed to Piestewa Peak, to honor Lori Piestewa, the first Native American, a Hopi, to die in combat in the US military. It was utterly right and fitting that the name was changed to honor this woman. And this was over a decade ago.
But white people like you can't handle change, even as much-needed as this was. In fact, you call it insanity. Most people call it just and proper.

You are being offensive to native Americans by twisting a common word for your benefit. I guess papoose is nxt
@Mott-The-Hoople
Of COURSE you would see nothing in it, not being first nation.
A clear white nationalist like you should never comment on these kind of issues, it shows how racist you really are.

So when you join the Proud Boys, do you get an ID card with it, pay dues? Secret handshake?

It's not offensive to you, no.
Because you're white. Oh yeah, and a racist.

Here it is: "Though the origins of squaw may have several questionably confirmed sources historically, Indigenous women say that the term is offensive."

@mott-the-hoople saidMott is correct. Neither of you get the big picture, knit-picking from one post to the other. Personally, I think you dont like the word squaw because if isn't a 'pretty' sounding name. Good point that papoose isn't pretty , either. Maybe if the name were 'Twillery Garden' you wouldn't get so hot under the collar, and you would quit continually changing definitions of words and naming of places, people, sex identity, ....the list goes on and on. Rest easy. Is everything so horrible for libs?

It used to be "Why don't you just move to another country', but no, you want to restructure this country, ruin it for everyone else. You are doing it.
@averagejoe1 saidRemoving racially-offensive place names is "ruining the country"?
