The negative connotation of the Chiefs is that the 'Cheifs' are CLEARLY assoicated with American Indians.
-So what???
If you saw 60,000 people dress up in black face and afro wigs prancing around the football field, would it be considered honoring the black community?? No, it would be considered racist.
-The team members don't dress in American Indian attire to play football, what does this mean?
Additionally, the Chiefs are assoicted as 'tribe' of violent players coming to Arrowhead Stadium to 'do battle'. Clearly, the Chiefs mascot is a negative association with the American Indian.
- Since when was this association made. I know I didn't get a program at the last game, was it written in there?
"A Native American Speaker at a recent assembly expressed his feelings on the unfair treatment of Native Americans in the United States. He also declared that teams named after Native Americans, like Florida State Seminoles, Atlanta Braves, The Kansas City Chiefs, and many more were racist. Tuesday (9/ 21/99) "
-Good, if that guy said it... it MUST be true then.
You can deny these FACTS, but I beg you to consider them before you support the Chiefs any longer. I am not here to be labeled a 'troll' -- I am here to wake you minds to the clear racism associated with the Chiefs!
-Are you sure you didn't use to be a Johovas Witness, you should apply if you haven't all ready.
Honestly, if you want a bit of credibility, maybe you should take OUR viewpoint in to consideration before getting angry and calling us all Stereotypical.
