A. Is she aware of what a tomahawk was used for?
B. The tomahawk is a Native American design, but it was improved upon by the Europeans who introduced the Natives to metal. They were using stone blades before and the Europeans made metal blades for them. The tomahawk as we know them are more of a European design than Native, and the tool was used by both Natives and Europeans.
C. The military uses Native American symbols and names out of respect for brave Indian warriors.

Can we keep a running list of things we need to ban so SJWs can sleep at night and sticky it? I can't keep up. Nearly everything in this world in "cultural appropriation" of some sort.

They succeeded in historic statues being torn down. It is sickening.

"Because even though we nearly wiped them off the face of the earth, we respected their fight and determination so we named cool weapons of war after them"

So we name badass military shite after badass Indian shite, and that's offensive?
Ok

That's a good point. Native Americans are probably thrilled their namesake missiles just took out a bunch of terrorists. Only a cupcake would try to turn this into a victim-pointing contest.

Didn't they survey a bunch of Native Americans a few years ago about the Washington 'Redskins' name and 90% of them didn't give a shite?
Lady, they have much greater things to worry about then what some missiles are or are not named.

I forgot about that.

We need to change the name of that poisonous snake to:
'Water Native American Shoes.'
'Water Native American Shoes.'

Why does this remind me of a feminine version of Slim Pickens riding that nuclear missile in Dr. Strrangelove?

The perpetually offended are.... always mad at something. It's their life's mission.
