I'd be a lot more impressed if some of these "anti-racists" were also complaining about the racial, inaccurate stereotyping of the Vikings, another football team.

When you select which "racism" you oppose, you expose your own racism.

Being offended is a conscious decision. You can only be offended if you allow yourself to be offended. Claiming to be offended by the name of a stupid football team is a sign of low self esteem and misplaced priorities. As Jerry Seinfeld said, "How could it be racist if I LIKE their race?"

Alert The PC Police! Mooch Uses Racial Slur…

Who cares about the Redskins? Probably not first lady Michelle Obama, who turned her sights on insulting the Romani minority community Monday.

While describing her struggles as a working mother, the usually politically correct first lady used the racial slur, gypped.

“The first thing I tried to do, which was a mistake, was that I tried the part-time thing… I realized I was getting gypped on that front,” Obama told ABC’s Robin Roberts at the White House Summit on Working Families. “What happened was I got a part-time salary but worked full time.”

The term “gypped” is a racial slur deriving from the word “gypsy,” a slur for the Roma. The slur to refers to the act of defrauding or robbing through practices such as swindling or cheating. The correct usage of the term is most certainly not synonymous to “slighted or “cut short.”

Defenders of Romani point out that the abbreviation, “gyp,” is nothing more than a callous slur used by the culturally insensitive. Similar slurs to “gypped” include “Jewed down” or calling someone an “Indian giver.”
