One mountain that I would be totally on board with changing is Mt. Rainier. It's named after a British admiral who never even stepped foot into this country and was our eventual enemy. Rename that one Mt. Tahoma or Mt. Tacoma.

There is no real way to quantify how many the first peoples murdered over history. But, we can safely assume it’s more than 173.

But hey, let’s name a mountain for them.

Savage murders fine - white guy “murders” not fine

Or maybe it’s because First People Describes a group of people the vast majority of whose didn’t lead any massacres where as Naming the mountain after 1 guu who did lead a massacre means it’s 100% named after a murderer.

Not trying to change the name
Of Mt American.

You want to memorialize people who killed “savages” just say it.

So you would say Americans are a group of murderers?

Some Americans murder.

I think You’d be hard pressed To find a group of people who don’t have member who commit murder.

It’s a lame excuse for actual Murderers.

It's not complicated. You just called everybody that isn't bothered by the name of peak near Yellowstone "pro-murder of women and children" - - -I'm simply pointing out that by that logic, unless you're lobbying to take Robert Byrd's name off of about 10,000 buildings and bridges, you're pro-KKK. Byrd or any of the other innumerable racist Democrats.

I’m fine with taking Robert Byrd name off stuff.

The ridiculousness with which the agency is going after "offensive" names is maddening. I am a Cartographer with USGS which falls under DOI and we have to deal with this bs for everything we put out now
