C'mon, Camron. This kind of sarcasm is beneath you. Can't you find a more eloquent way to make your point?

I don't think this point is all that out of line. How far will the ban go. Right now it is associated with Native American's, what's next, I think it is a fair and important question.
I am not against eliminating situations that are offensive, but letting governing bodies such as the NCAA mandate these actions bothers me.
And once we start heading down that path, its hard to pull in the reins and stop.
I really think "What's next" is a question we should all be asking ourselves.
