Do you know who Tecumseh and the 6 nations were? They fought with Brock in 1812. They routinely scapled victims dead or injured but still alive. They didn't get that from europeans. Careful who you decide to cancel. North American natives have waged war on each other for at least 7000 years. Further they also routinely took slaves and traded slaves to other tribes. Long before europeans arrived. EVERYONEs history has warts. The Redskins is the only one that's at all questionable. And you have a right to be offended but not to cancel or revise history.

Deciding to rename a sports franchise is not "revising history."
And the rehearsal of Native American brutality and pre-European wars feels like a distraction.
