I think we need to change a lot of names around here, just for the easily offended. All the Native American named gotta go, that means Milwaukee, Waukesha, Oconomowoc all have to change names.
Next we need to change all the other sports teams' names, "Brewers" can offend anyone who does not drink, "Packers" are making fun of the blue collar workers, "Bucks", PETA, hello?
MU did not do it right when they try to change it to "Gold", what is that? It offends colorblind people, or does it encourage certain materialistic value?
The only way to get around this is to spell everything out for EVERYONE, so I propose a warning label or disclaimer if we continue to use these insensitive names.
We sure don't want the lawyers to get a hold of this, do we?
We are changing our name to "43 degree 00'37.17"N 88 degree14'08.10"W Tattoo Company -with no disrespect to pigment challenged people, the unemployed or non-English speaking people, non-Capitalists, anyone from Illinois, the blind and people who do not have a GPS, have a bad sense of direction, or against technology-The management does reserve the right to expand on this list and we like to apologize to all and any in advance."
