Is there a setting somewhere for ruby-debug to avoid the
(rdb:1) exit
Really quit? (y/n) y

?

Thanks!

There is
"quit unconditionally"
but I'm looking for more like a ~/.rdbrc setting. From the code [to
answer my question] appears there isn't one currently.

Yeah makes sense to me--I submitted a patch to allow for it.

The owner is a typically stubborn ass. But you'd think the NFL could do something since a percentage of merchandise sales are split up to every team.

One of the problems with this issue is that I think a large proportion
of the American public does not live in areas where there's contention
between Native Americans and other Americans.

Race relations between blacks and whites are front-and-center in our
culture, and everyone knows that it's taboo for non-blacks to use the
N-word. But the R-word is far removed from the public consciousness, it
sounds to many of us like a quaint relic from the wild west. Most of us
don't encounter Native Americans, and we're not aware of them being
discriminated against in the same way that blacks or latinos are.

I think it's likely that the owner of the team is like that, which is
why he thinks that the name actually celebrates Native Americans.

But in areas where there are clashes between the communities (like the
area where the "Longmire" TV show takes place), I suspect that the
R-word *is* used as a derogatory term. And these Native Americans have
good reason to be offended when the term is used nonchalantly as the
name of a sports team.

Yeah, he's only making a 16,000% profit (before takes). That'll teach
him.

The overwhelming majority of Native American nations have gone on record
saying they have no problem with the team name. It's only a whiny few who
see political and financial advantage in being outraged that are
complaining.
