I saw that story last night.. WWL news has become the "Inside Edition" of local news, it really scraped the bottom with this story... They just lost a long time watcher... I'll Miss Laura, Sheeba and Tomika in the morning..

Time to rename the Saints as the name is offensive to whiny athiests and black folk who weren't offended by this until now. Obviously, we must rename the team to a sensitive option such as the 'New Orleans Gold Team'.

Good. The Saints need a new uniform makeover anyway.








That is sarcasm

I'm sure Africa has some problems Seck could be working on instead of this.

Did you even read the article? Let me help you:

quote:

Knowing the symbol has that dark history, should it be compared to the likes of the confederate flag?

Fitzmorris said no.

"The fleur de lis was the symbol of a monarchy. The United States of America was a slave-holding republic, not just the south. Where do you stop? Do you get rid of all symbols?

Seck agrees, saying that the symbol has been embraced by the city as one of unity.

I've known several white girls who have ridden in Zulu and they all wore blackface. I don't think it was their choice.

Yes I did and they stated the symbol is racist/has racist connections, the mark of slaves. Im eluding to the fact that's is only a matter of time before it's called for removal.

If you cannot see the hidden, should I say OBVIOUS adgenda, then my condolences.

I am personally offended by the name Winn-Dixie!

What a racist name.. It should be banned also.
