AD Nauseum.
Not every single thing needs to be examined and ripped apart because of perceived offence or because of "white guilt". And as a person who is 1/2 native I personally think this whole discussion is offensive. Freaking drop it. No one actually cares about the name. I'm more sick of people being offended on my behalf when I don't actually care.

I honestly think you have a point about society putting special interest groups above the majority, just not here.
Changing this name is such an easy thing to do. 10% of an entire race is still a lot of people. We aren't even talking about "special treatment" here. Just dropping a derogatory slur from a professional sports team. It just seems like basic manners / humanism to me.
