It is ridiculous that a tradition like this even exists.
A tradition that celebrates the fight for slavery.
A tradition that celebrates people who, by today's standards, could only be considered traitors and terrorists.
A tradition and mascot that celebrates war and the killing of american soldiers.
(where's the vietcong-inspired mascot?)
I'm impressed by the decision too. I'm baffled by people who in the name of tradition insist on celebrating things that they should be ashamed of.
