Government must use the police & military to enforce political correctness in all its forms. Freedom of speech is too dangerous and must be crushed. We cannot allow anyone to have their feelings hurt. Take from the producers and give to the less successful. .Gov to buy votes to stay in power. /s

Because schools should have the freedom to choose whatever name they want because this falls under the 1st amendment Freedom of Speech.

"New York officials voted to stop the practice this week." That, in a nutshell, describes how messed up New York is. They would prefer names like Lambs, Opossums, Fawns and names similar to that. I can't say the other names that they would approve of because it would be removed.

The mental disease of liberalism has reached pandemic levels in this country. It is time liberals are locked down in their houses for about 2 years to flatten the curve. When they come out all the problems in this country would have been solved but liberals should continue to wear masks forever.

We need police officers not cameras. Our city council has a defund the police mentality and it's showing. We used to see vehicle stops all the time. Rarely do you see them anymore. The police don't even respond to some calls anymore. We will soon be Portland unless we decide to vote for better optio

I wonder if anyone asked the regular indigenous folks how they feel? Random guess, 99% would say "Dude, I don't care...I got more important things to do." Only the 1% get time on the mainstream media to spark this fake outrage.

I agree with Toasty. It's all fake outrage. Indian tribes have all indicated that they are either honored or indifferent to the team names, so who wants to ban them?

The Constitution should be the bedrock of our democracy, not a 50.000001% out-of-state dark money, pay petition gathers and buy an election with false advertising gimmick. It should take way more signatures to get on the ballot and 75% of the vote during a presidential election for a change. FJB

Grabbing power away from the out-of-state dark money liberals who can't get their simps elected to the legislature and giving power back to the people where it belongs.

Because the Republicans want to control the voters instead of the voters controlling the government.

You can't possibly believe that. Everyone knows these initiative petitions are bought and paid for by out-of-state special interests who are very well funded. Constitutions should only be amended on rare occasions and it should be difficult to do, not easy to buy.
