I'm sure there are quite a few Plains tribes that don't care much either. They're just looking to get their two seconds of fame by feigning outrage. Or.. maybe we should never have anyone wear or depict native americans in any way, and we can relegate them to the dust bins of old history books and then forget about them.

So I can ... "cultural appropriation."?!? So I can never use a french phrase or quote Shakespeare because I'm American? America once used to be known as the "Melting pot" where ideas and ways from other cultures were combined with the current culture to the general public benefit.
