  1. Yeah, they should thank us for the lower wages, and lesser benefits that they get. Woo woo, while we are at it, the tier 1 low seniority should thank us for the longer max pay progression and longer time for medical also. Look atball those things we gave you. You best be appreciative and act grateful, just like Little Country. Next time Little country sees King or Settles he's going to buynthem a Gatorade on a hot day just to say thanks for his job.
  2. We knew in the 40-50's that we were polluting too and did little about it. The Cuyahoga river caught on fire 10+ times and an almost 40 mile stretch was without any aquatic life outside of algae. Lake Erie was called a dead lake because of the run off from fertilizer and the pollution for manufacturing. Billions of gallons of fresh water nearly unusable.
  3. So are you correct? I'm not a big fan of Jimmy or the decisions he makes, but I'm not a fan of Leduff and his whole act either.
  4. Not punished. Business shouldn't be able to profit off of offensive speech and the Lanham act specifically details that.
  5. let's see what qualities are "Associated" with the term redskin Yep, you're right, they only meant the best.
  6. I kinda like that Jimmy went after Leduff. I didn't like the piece he did on the Volkswagen organizing and he seems like the run your mouth and hide behind the camera's type. Maybe Chuck and jimmy could step out back and handle things. I'd pay to see it.
  7. The term Redskin doesn't have a history of being used by non-native Americans to convey any of your suggestions. It was used as a slur for many many years.
  8. The name IS a slur though. The law is clear in that regard. The case presented in 92 and now was much deeper than just offense. They presented testimony to the words usage throughout our countries history and clearly showed that the word WAS used disparagingly and like I said the law is clear.
  9. That it was granted in the first place or that Native Americans finally were gained a voice in our society outside of reservations and casinos?
  10. Inventory costs money and taxes. So does OT but at least they are selling product when they pay it out.
  11. There's no need to pity me because you're taking my answer to a particular example and extrapolating outward. I understand to you this is a giant ideological issue but to me it's merely a singular point concerning the usage of a disparaging term as a trademark. And as a single point issue I have no worries about mission creep because the Lanham act is as specific as it needs to be. The term redskin has a history of being used to disparage Native Americans, it was okayed in error by the office and upon review was removed. This is merely a correction to the registration of six trademarks that did not meet the law originally.
  12. I'm sorry but I don't believe that "mission creep" in the trademark and patent office will eventually come after something I value. I don't hold any patents or trademarks and do not currently value anyone elses. As for Mount Rushmore, I don't have any vested interest in it either way, probably much to people's chagrin.
