Swans are assholes, in my experience.
They're just privileged ducks

That's a White Swan wearing black feathers. Probably swam through an oil slick.

Saying all swans matter at this time would be like if after 9/11 you said all buildings matter. Except if the WTC was filled with black swans, and also all those planes were filled with swans, and the other buildings were filled with swans, and also if George Floyd was a black swan, and the cop who killed him was a white swan.

Swans lack the body mass to compress a swan neck by kneeling on it, since swan necks are well understood to be both large and very muscular. The comparison is thus unscientific and probably also racist.

In England it's illegal to kill a swan unless you're the Queen.
That's actually also true for Americans.

I think the justification was that if you allowed the hunting of animals that wander about as though they own the freaking place, making this dreadful trumpeting noise, then the bloodshed would never end.
I'm not sure why it's illegal to kill swans.

Right now, Redskins is not the biggest slur in their name. Washington is. Their city was named after a slave owner that while fighting to free one group of people chose to keep another in bondage. Yes, he expressed distaste for the practice, but never released his own slaves because of the financial ramifications. He didn't want to have to pay labor. Cheap bastard. This sick and evil man is should not be honored by having a city and team named after him.
I propose they change the name to the Black Lives Matter Redskins.

Don't forget that Washington also farmed tobacco. Can you imagine the number of people who died from lung cancer due to him?

How many fled enslavement in other countries because he gave them a place to go?

"Potomac" is a European spelling of Patawomeck, the Algonquian name of a Native American village on its southern bank. Native Americans had different names for different parts of the river, calling the river above Great Falls Cohongarooton, meaning "honking geese" and "Patawomke" below the Falls, meaning "river of swans". The spelling of the name has taken many forms over the years from "Patawomeck" (as on Captain John Smith's map) to "Patomake", "Patowmack", and numerous other variations in the 18th century and now "Potomac". The river's name was officially decided upon as "Potomac" by the Board on Geographic Names in 1931
