[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They changed their name several years ago so if you are still wearing/displaying anything with the old name at this point I will assume that you are intending to offend people with it. You shouldn't have had it in the first place, names like that should have gone away decades ago (long before [b]2020[/b]!), but to still have the license plate frame or the flag on your antenna or in your front window on game day or whatever...you are just flaunting something you know is considered racist. Might as well put on a pointy hood while you're at it, you're trash. [/quote]

And yes, I feel the same way about people who display the Confederate flag. I had family members who fought on the southern side in the Civil War and can remember them and my family history without displaying any flag other than the U.S. flag. The Confederate flag, like the former Commanders team name, and plenty of other racist names and symbols, isn't about "history" or "pride," its about the ability for members of the majority group to be openly and continually disrespectful to minorities.
