re: Redskins owner Dan Snyder "We will never change the name of the team"

Of course not as much now. We, as a nation, killed almost all of them.

While I disagreed, you were so reasonable up to this point. But that's just objectively wrong.

There's no "we" here, first of all, since none of us were born. Secondly, it is estimated that 90% of Native Americans in the Americas died before contact firsthand with Europeans even happened, once settlers first hit the east coast. Why damage the credibility of an otherwise reasonable opinion with an apoplectic and dishonest statement?
