I don’t know Jim.. I love your comic.. but in a country with as little respect for Indians and their rights as we have.. it feels a bit like mockery. And CH would at best be a translation of his actual name. I’m sure you didn’t mean it that way, and I laugh at some of the strips with arrows sticking out of people. But still. Just a comment. I’m not trying to make you politically correct ;)
I did not read any previous comment, but I think this cartoon originated decades ago when people had a smaller shoe size because their toes were less long. The 21st century and certainly its second decade became an era of where most stand firm on their view and cann’t tolerate another viewpoint.
‘Crazy Horse’ is short for ‘He Rides a Crazy Horse’. And the implied meaning is ‘spirited and energetic’, not ‘insane’. So, he is a man that rides a spirited and energic horse.

In “Lakota English” his name was “Tȟašúŋke Witkó”.
So it might be under “T” or “W”

Now that you mention it … could it be that taking their land AND laughing at them perhaps is just a tiny little bit too much?

Reminds me of my mother telling me about the woman who worked for her, who filed paperwork from the State of New Jersey under “S” for State.

Under “I” for imposter. That native indian blood is so diluted by now it no longer counts.

Oh give me a break! Even in a cartoon you have to virtue signal. Indians are not the uneducated morons you think they are!
