I understand that dropping racial epithets about African American get those posts cut down and sometime get the perma-ban.

I replied and RAed a post here LINK and it was ignored.

Care to explain the seeming double standard?

It's very offensive to Native Americans.

It's more offensive to me than Redskins.

Yes, seriously. You posted this earlier:

Sounds like you should take your own advice.

The term Indian giver carries a negative connotation when dealing with the natives relations with settlers term Redskins does not.

Indian giver implies that all Indians or natives were ignorant or dishonest.

just admit that you're being disingenuous and that you're trying to make some weak political point on the Help Board.

I don't think it implies that at all.

The word VOL in your name offends me. I will assume it means Volunteer, which along with other meanings, is an offensive title given to Civil War militia known as Rebels.

Lighten up.

To me, it means someone who wants the gift back or something in return.

People with intelligence don't think it means all Native Americans are ignorant or whatever else you said.

Your dumb. Check your history. The term "Indian Giver" refers to American settlers not the Indians.
