Quote:However, not all Native Americans used tomahawks, so that might be offensive to some them because the term "tomahawk" could mean a stereotype.

 

My point is that PC has gotten so out of control that it's starting to dictate and take over society.  The Washington Redskins have been around longer than probably 99% of the participants on this message board.  It's never "offended" anyone until recently, and I would wager that those that are "offended" probably don't have a drop of Native American blood in them.

 

And the n-word has been around longer than any of us also, and for a very long time it didn't seem to "offend" many, and I would wager that many of those who were offended probably didn't have a drop of black blood in them. 

 

Or are you still using it? If not, is that an example of PC getting out of control?

 

Everything that changes is not political correctness. Everything doesn't have to remain as it was in 1955.
