The President should immediately prohibit military support at sporting events where teams who have offensive and derogatory names or icons will play. Providing official support to teams such as the Washington Redskins or the Cleveland Indians is sending the message that our government supports the degradation of Native Americans. Further asking military members to support to these teams puts them in direct opposition to each of the services core values. While the president cannot direct these teams to change their names we can end military support.
