    no we are not,to be frank with you we are proud that our own put them selves out there to defend this country(turtle island) we are never happy about mascot naming,tires,cars and a million other things that's named for our nations.it is very prejudges,and even hurtful.if i had a car called the little whitie,or a set of tires called germen..ect...many people would feel the same as we do...people should think before they speak,learn to honor others and stop stealing from them...my land does not belong to me,,,and now they use our sacred language ..meanings that they could never understand and name objects.....NO.

    No. I think it would be good to remove all tribal names from "things."
