You obviously don't know how this works. You don't look at issues like this on an individual basis and apply logical analysis. Instead you just take a stand against anything those "PC pusssies" suggest , and proudly defend our god-given rights as Americans to support offensive stereotypes.
Redskins is offensive, but this "Who Dey" chant is not.
Here is my reasoning. If our opponents were African American and we were mocking them, then I think that would be offensive. If we were making fun of the way another languages sounds, like when people speak gibberish sounds to imitate Chinese, then I think it would be offensive. Instead it is a chant or cheer that shows support of our own team. As fans we shout it back and forth at each other, not as an insult, but as a symbol of pride. It is not the same as adopting a racial slur as a team name.
