I guess 20 security officers are going to put zip ties on 40,000 fans when there's 2 outs in the bottom of the 9th

This kind of thinking has gotten us to where we are. The constant quest to make everything offensive.

And which tribe did this war chant? Was it the Lakota, the Apache, Comanche, or the Seminoles? Or perhaps it was the Creek and Cherokee?

Could not care less about them saying we can’t chop at Braves games. The sticker on the back of my vehicle says “I’m here to chop” and that’s what I’m going to do, with or without their consent or music. Got a t shirt with the chopping symbol as well. Plan to wear it at the stadium as often as possible once we can attend games again.

Is it true that the term 'Braves' originally referred to the Boston Tea Party patriots who disguised themselves as native americans ?

Yes I believe so as the team originated in Boston.

How does something you appropriate from Florida State become iconic?

Better check yourself. Who are you to tell white liberal non-sportsfans what to be outraged about?

I was born here. So, I can do it with your reasoning?

Indians weren't from her originally, either. They came here at some point from somewhere else. Kind of messes with your "natives" rationale.
