If you'd like to stop moving the goal posts, let me know. I never said all the tribal leaders have claimed the term to be racist, so I'm not sure now why I have to prove a statement that you've created.
But hey, you know what, I'm happy to oblige. So here is proof of ALL tribe leaders claiming the term to be racist:

Good enough for you? Or do you have some other reason not to buy in? Is the leader of every recognized tribe "enough" for you?
I don't know why you'd quote the term enough as I never used that. But you are starting to get the point. Referencing a published piece works better than Its racists. They hate it. You're stupid.

The point you were trying to make:
Quote:
Most polls I've seen referenced list the opposition as very minimal towards Redskins.

Then you clearly didn't see the "poll" where they protested a Redskins game. Or you know, the protests that have been going on for 25 years...
is to invalidate the polls because of the people gathered to protest. A protest may "speak louder," but their opinions don't carry more weight than the opinions provided in the polls.
Nice cherry picked picture of 3 people though.
