7 Trademarks That Obama's Patent Office Declared Less Offensive Than 'Redskins'

On Wednesday, the United States Trademark Trial and Appeal Board canceled six federal trademarks held by the Washington Redskins involving the team’s name. In the board’s opinion, the term Redskins is “disparaging to Native Americans at the respective times they were registered.”

Of course lost in this so-called controversy is the fact that, despite the Democrat activists who got Obama to act, polls show the vast majority of Native Americans are not offended by the Redskins moniker. And in fact dozens of Native-majority school districts use the “Redskins” team name themselves, including one Arizona school that is 100% Navajo.

All of this leaves us wondering: which trademarks areless offensive according to US Patent and Trademark Office? Well, here are 7 trademarked terms that apparently rank lower on Obama’s offense radar:

1. Cracka Azz Skateboards: This trademark is used for skateboards, longboards and clothing. USPTO says, “The wording ‘cracka azz’ has no meaning in a foreign language.” Yes, we know. It’s slang for “cracker” and is used as insult against whites, primarily within the black community.
