All day long I've been fuming about this, along with several of
my friends - one of whom has started a petition on change.org -

probably all pretty much overweight middle aged white men. I'm
almost certain in this case if you sat down with representatives
from the native American community and asked them if they were
offended by Exeter's actions, the answer would be no. The same
concept applies all manor of things. It's a bit like the
decision has been made it IS offensive, without really
consulting the actual target market of the "victims".

Out of interest did you read the article I shared earlier in
this discussion as it does provide evidence against what you
have said. No problem if you have not I certainly don't read
everything that gets posted on here either but just thought you
might like to take a look.
It's also worth noting that the Exchiefs4change team also have a
good Twitter thread with evidence directly from Native American
Communities as to why things like fans wearing headdresses are
offensive etc.
Both worth a read if you have the time :)

Personally I think we are missing the Elephant in the room.
Saracens - err Hello. Why should they be allowed to appropriate
a culture and identity. The identity they have appropriated
would be aghast at the way they have behaved with the financial
doping they have been doing in recent years. Give the noble
Saracen back their honour!!!!

Wonder if the American teams leaping to change their names stood
to lose out financially in some way?

Anyone notice Wales have just selected an Exeter player called
Christ?
And some think headdresses are a problem!
