Trump threatens to restrict stadium deal with Washington Commanders if they don’t change name back to ‘Redskins’

Al Capone was running a criminal organization that include murder, robbery, extortion, tax evasion and other crimes.

The businesses made up their minds to change their names, and they got to decide to succumb to woke stupidity. Having the government interfere with a private business changing its name crosses a line.

Republicans are supposed to be against government inter in private business affairs. Wrong is wrong.

The only thing they ever convicted Capone of was Tax Evasion.

The businesses were extorted into changing their names. They were made "An offer they couldn't refuse"

Correcting a wrong isn't wrong.

Are you a Liberturdian? Let me know so I can put you on ignore if you are. I despise Liberturdians

Did Congress interfere? A question not a criticism.

Congress is part of the government it needs to stay out of private business when it does not involve safety or the public’s best interest. I don’t see that changing a team names serves the public in anyway.

No the team allowed public pressure to change their name name.

Not entirely, there was state legislation that did force the issue.

Tax evasion is illegal, changing the name of a sports team is not.

What was the offer the team could not refuse? They caved to people I would have ignored.

I’m a conservative, this forcing a name change on a business doesn’t meet with serving the public’s interests.

Correct, forcing the name change on the business did not meet with serving the public's interest to begin with.

Works for me. Form the team!

They did it voluntarily, they succumbed to public pressure. I would have held my ground but I am not sure how much pressure the NFL put on them, but that was a private decision not a governmental decision.

What state legislation forced the change? Washington DC isn’t even a state.

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

Maybe they should have gone with the Blackskins.

I always preferred the Foreskins!

Extortion is illegal, too. They were extorted.

Happens all the time. But dimocrap scum persecutors won't bother with it. No different than Sharpton's and The Right On Right Reverend Jesse Jackson and his ilk extorting businesses into making substantial donations to their "Charities". Nice bidness you got there. Be a shame if it got burned down during a 'protest'

I bet, if you look deep enough, there were some donations made to certain charities by those teams. Maybe even to certain Campaign Funds.

dimocrap scum are criminals. Never forget that. Ever.

They are an infestation and we need to fight them wherever we find them.

Laissez faire doesn't work with them. They need to be confronted at every opportunity

The team has no interest in changing its name, and that is why government needs to butt out.

Can we all admit "Commanders" is a stupid name.

I agree, I would have kept the name the Redskins.

The name change was absurd. Basically giving in to a vocal minority.

So what? Thats no reason for the gov to step in.

 

[Slade3200]

LOL. Well, democrats want to dictate many things to businesses.

And that was once a thing that conservatives stood against. I guess the maga movement is closer to Dems and commies than they pretend. Huh?

 

[Slade3200]

It was people like you who dictated what the team should be called. Most Indigenous Americans who you pushed for them to be called instead of Indians, do not care. The Redskin brand is iconic. Or was iconic. I remember an African American sports commentator wearing a White skins shirt as to get on the Caucasians. Maybe whites should start purchasing those shirts and wearing them as saying who gives a shit?

None of that rant has anything to do with why anybody would support one man in government dictating what a business should name itself. That’s pretty commie don’t you think?

 

[Papageorgio]

Just as it was wrong for the government to pressure social media to censure and ban posters for not touting the government agenda.

The two sides blur their lines.
