Harry "The Snake" Reid Cheers Patent Office Yanking Redskins Trademark, Name A “Tradition Of Racism And Bigotry”…
Via Roll Call:
Two of the Senate’s leading critics of Washington Redskins name and team owner Dan Snyder were quick to take the Senate floor to praise the Patent and Trademark Office’s decision to strip the team of its trademarks.
First came Sen. Maria Cantwell, D-Wash., a former chairwoman of the Indian Affairs Committee, who has spearheaded efforts to get the name changed. On the floor, she criticized the Redskins monicker as a slur.
“We’re so excited to know that finally people are recognizing that this issue can no longer be a business case for the NFL to use this patent,” Cantwell said. “They will not be able to forcefully exclude other people from having derivatives of this logo or the name.
“This is not the end of this case, but this is a landmark decision by the Patent Office that says that the NFL team here in Washington, DC, does not have a patentable name, and that this is an offensive term, not patentable by the patent office,” Cantwell continued.
Majority Leader Harry Reid followed not long after, saying, “it’s just a matter of time before [Snyder's] forced to change the name.”
“There are 27 tribes in the state of Nevada, Native Americans. The issue of the name Redskins is very important to every one of those tribes,” Reid said. “Every time they hear this name is a sad reminder of a long tradition of racism and bigotry.”
Reid said Snyder tried to effectively buy off one of the Nevada tribal groups with a car, an offer that was refused.
“Daniel Snyder says it’s about tradition. I ask, what tradition? The tradition of racism is all that that name leaves in its wake,” said Reid. “The writing is on the wall. It’s on the wall in giant blinking neon lights. The name will change.”
"The world is literally exploding around us and our sworn enemies vow to visit us on our own soil and all you hack assholes can muster up is the name of a sports team and globullshit warming? Harry there is a big pile of bills on your desk waiting for senate approval. Forget about this
libtard bullshit and get to work. Harry Turd needs to be flushed and fast. Way to pander to your idiot constituency you old scumbag. When did you join the Senate, Harry? When? Were the Washington Redskins in existence? And yet no mention of your offended sensibilities or those 27 tribes in Nevada before now. Interesting. And it looks like the commies has finally gained control of the Patent office, one of their many wishes. I'm beginning to believe these vile individuals in our government gave the go ahead to the Patent and Trademark office to render this decision. The DOJ, led by Panther Holder probably told them 'we have your back'. And this both pisses me off me and frightens me at the same time. Dan Snyder don't you dare cave to these POS scumbag politicians who think a sports team's name is more important than dealing with a country that is falling apart at our feet. And Dan, if you do change the name, please change it to the Washington Kochs." MC
