Savage Arms' name came from the founder, whose last name was Savage. The offensive logo was adopted later, if I recall correctly, which is, in a way, worse than simply starting out with a racist logo - the name Savage Arms doesn't need a logo at all.

I'm as annoying as the high-pitched whine of my motorcycle, desperately compensating for the lack of substance in my life.

In 1919, Chief Lame Deer approached Arthur Savage to purchase lever-action rifles for the Indian reservation and the two men struck a deal. The tribe would get discounted rifles and Savage would get their support and endorsement. It was at this time in the company's history, that Arthur Savage added the Indian head logo--a direct gift from the Chief--to the company name.
Still, lol at "savage arms"

I like how you took the written context I had in my post out just so you could explain it in a worse way and act like I didn't already provide an explanation. Not sure if you're an idiot or trying to be weirdly malicious?

black kid playing with toy gun, murdered in cold blood in mere seconds. no charges.

white kid drives drunk, kills four people, gets probation because being rich is boring and stuff you guys.

Fortunately the Mexican authorities have him now and I can't imagine their sympathy for overprivileged white kids runs quite so deep.

Not really the same. Now if, say, a bunch of grown men and women pointed actual guns at federal agents



Or if he had an actual gun and stood there threatening the police and society in general

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GQwlfXdDDYA

Or if he actually started shooting the cops with the plastic pellets in the toy gun

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JE059hTqPJU

Or if he had an actual gun and started shooting at people's cars and pointing it at police when they showed up

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yy6EVbrBpOY

that would be different. There's one common theme that runs between all of these people that's different from Tamir Rice. Something that kept the police from just instantly shooting them and instead trying to calm them down and take them alive. Weird.

It doesn't have to be. If affluenza kid was black I doubt the judge would have been so lenient.

Yes. The Mexican authorities are known for ignoring money and influence when justice must be served.
