No, the test is whether you would refer to the Washington pro football team as the Redskins. That is the only issue at hand. Personalization and name calling is NOT the issue. This is a historical team name of 80 years.
Why is your little example different than walking up to an Indian and calling them “Chief”, “Brave” or “Warrior”?
Irrelevant. The team isn’t called the chiefs, braves, or warriors. Also, if someone was a chief, brave, or warrior, would you even hesitate to call them that?
And the court has struck down your second arguement, correct?
I have no idea what you’re talking about.
also, these folks or their ancestors carried their butt over here just like everyone else…Nobody was placed here by God or evolved here. Tribal American is more like it.
Shouldn’t there be a statute of limitations after which a population can be considered native? Doesn’t it seem like before Moses is an acceptable cutoff?
