I can understand wanting to ban the term "Redskin", because that does come off as racist.
However, going further then that into "Indians" or "Chiefs" or "Braves" or individual tribal names is stupid. Personally, I find it more offensive then the names themselves.
As for, "the minority is not allowed to be stomped on just because they have smaller numbers," all I can do is ask a question: what about the "minority" made up of the students in these schools, as well as the "minority" of the individual tribes? Don't THEY have a say as well?
