Indians Shanghaied by Shanghai Noon
(7/13/00)


Another response to Indians Shanghaied by Shanghai Noon:

It's a Jackie Chan movie, for God's sake. Why don't people just get over it.

Tonto was just a radio character (as were Amos 'n' Andy). Chief Wahoo is just a sports logo. "Squaw" is just an arbitrary arrangement of sounds.

It's always just a minor problem—when it happens to someone else, not to you.
