Major development in the Oklahoma Indian community...

[Okla-homey]

The President has nominated Arvo Mikkanen, currently an Assistant US Atty in the Western District of Oklahoma for the federal bench in Tulsa. He will be the only Indian (he's Kiowa) on the federal bench in the United States - if he is confirmed.

High time IMHO.

I'm pretty sure there were some Cherokees on the Eastern District bench, but I could be wrong. Maybe they were just Asst. DAs.

I never dissed him. I just said he was a half naked Indian, and the name that was given to him was disgusting.

and knowing you jesus freak.... you probably think its perfectly acceptable to pigment one's skin, put on a wig, dress in fake indian wear with a fake war spear (in other words dressing a white person to look like an indian) and ride out to the 50yard line and throw the fake spear in the ground.... like FSU does....

There are still Indians on the sidelines...just not at OU. See Chief Osceola which will parade on the sidelines vs OU in Sept. with the support of the Seminole nation.

No, I don't think that is acceptable either. Nor, would I think it would be acceptable to have a black mascot named "Lil' Blackie," or a white mascot named "Lil' Whitie." I would like to see the NFL's Washington team change its mascot as well.

By the way, it is impossible for me to be a Jesus freak. I am Presbyterian.

This is a silly argument, Okie. Little Red is as dead as a doornail. He is not coming back in either your lifetime or mine. The sidelines, at football games, will be packed with the likes of Toby Keith, JR, etc., but there will not be a half-clad Indian lad getting in Stoops' way. It ain't gonna happen. Thank God.

Native Americans should play a bigger role in Oklahoma sports. I see no reason Indians can't be Federal Judges AND mascots with cute names.

No it won't happen because of PC imbeciles.


According to polling results published in Sports Illustrated in February 2002,

“ Although most Native American activists and tribal leaders consider Indian team names and mascots offensive, neither Native Americans in general nor a cross section of U.S. sports fans agree.[6] According to the article, "There is a near total disconnect between Indian activists and the Native American population on this issue."[6] ”

In 2004, a poll by the Annenberg Public Policy Center at the University of Pennsylvania essentially confirmed the Sports Illustrated poll's findings, concluding that 91% of the American Indians surveyed in the 48 states on the mainland USA found the name acceptable.[7]

But don't let the Indian's feelings get in the way of a PC agenda.

Activists exist for one reason only. Stir up ****. Racial equality and harmony pits them out of a job. Keeping hatred rolling, keeps them from becoming obsolete. So of course there is a disconnect between activists and the people they "represent".

Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton approve this message.

Come on now, the Negros used to have their own baseball league. White dudes couldnt play in it. Nobody complained about that now did they?

Where was the ACLU then? Just think of all the records Babe Ruth could have set if he were allowed to play in that league?

I was one of two or three liberal posters, who dared break up the daily right winged circle jerk at the old and dead OU Insider. Still, unlike most of the right winged posters, I had the guts to join other posters for lunch. With the exception of one nut job, who has been on the government tit his entire working life, I managed to get along with the other posters. While we disagreed on politics, we often times found common ground in other areas.
