Looking into it a bit further, many German-Americans were hung for being pro-Union during the Civil War, or for being pro-Germany during WWI and WWII: Civil War on the Home Front | Texas Almanac Why do blacks get to be offended at a cartoon of a noose, but I don't? Since when are blacks the only people who ever were hung? I do not agree they get to own this symbol as their own as if no white person every suffered such a fate.

Political comments belong in the West Mall. If your comment is about the political angle of sports, create a post there.
I understand what you’re saying, but once a sports topic begins to take on political issues the conversation goes off track.
