Why this petition matters

Started by Louis Milano

Western CT State University announced that it has changed it's mascot from "Colonial Chuck" to the Wolves. Chuck was representative of the Minutemen from the Revolutionary War. They believe that Chuck symbolizes an America era that is "too violent." 

The Minutemen, like all of our early American Patriots are heroes that should be celebrated, not erased or looked past. This is sickening to me how PC we've become and I'm not allowing this to happen. 

Please help me force West Conn's hand, to change the Mascot back to Colonial Chuck. 

West Conn is located in Danbury, CT, a city that was vital to the Revolution that birthed this great nation. Chuck should be the mascot for the same reason we have any mascot, to start a conversation. Our American story should be told again and again. It should not be ignored or have shame attached to it. 

It's cliche but please help me stop the madness.
