I remember when I was about 8 years old my Dad got called spic and wetback in the same sentence by a white woman at a convenience store in Houston because she didnt think we spoke English. We were leaving the store when it happened, our backs to this person. It was obvious she didnt want to waste a perfectly good opportunity to say those special words to an actual Mexican and his child. Nevermind we were both born in the same state she was. That shouldnt be a memory that an 8 year old keeps for life, but it is. If you are a minority just imagine your worst racial slur being a sports team name. Then try to watch one Washington game without thinking about that. Im as guilty as everyone else for ignoring this for so long. Change the name already, stupids. PS. My dad looked like the Washington logo. youtube/watch?v=mR-tbOxlhvE
