'"Being of Native American descent, I love it that sports teams honor me and my ancestors by naming themselves after our proud people. How thrilling it is to hear names such as Warriors, Braves, Redskins, Chiefs and Indians!

There are those who desperately want us to be offended so they can make us less than human. We're attacked by liberal traitors who want to remove our memory to satisfy their allegiance to political correctness, forgetting us in their ambition to join the crowd and be nominally accepted, cowering before these flattering, unholy activists and trying to influence us to be one of them.

We must reject their godless agenda to make us disappear. To the Kickapoo, Choctaw, Kiowa, Apache, Cherokee, etc., I say you've been had! If this continues, you'll soon be hidden, forgotten and will disappear."
