Nah the Tomahawk Chop has somehow dodged the bullet the Washington football team is taking so therefore it's still okay. Somehow.

The somehow comes from the fact that there are a lot of teams with insensitive Indian poo poo, so it makes sense to focus on the one in order to get a legal precedent rather than spread their wallets thin attacking the Chicago Blackhawks to the Pensacola Drunken Indians

Noble savage bullshit. People want to hearken to the supposed bravery and honor of indigenous people, but don't want them to actually live.

At some point in history after stealing their land and killing most of them America started to fall in love with the idea of the noble savage; those teams are named as an honor to them basically.
