I've served with several native Americans throughout my career and know that they were sensitive to such stereotypes. There really was no need to use an "Indian" as the subject of the joke, it could just as easily have been a homeless guy or something without having to make it offensive.

I like the military discussions on this board, but I'm disappointed in the double standards and the juvenile approach to some of the humor. I would have expected better from military professionals.

Again just my opinion. NOt my kind of humor. Hate and humor don't mix in my world.
