no duh?? I was raised in Chihuahua, and the Tarahumara tribe deserves respect,..this tribe actually decended from the Tigua Tribe (Native Americans) in west texas and new mexico,..am glad the sculptures were removed :)

Well that's what I mean. The combination makes it offensive.
If you had an eagle dressed in it, I doubt anyone would find offense.
 
The only diffrence is that the Chihuahua dog, does not represent the T. tribe...believe me i was raised in Chihuahua, and know the T. tribe very well ;)
