@AlamoBuck bout as clear as bricks and your "insult" would have been effective if you had a valid argument...
-
@Jetr5115 I was pretty clear on what I was saying, but apparently you didn't understand any of it. I reckon I'm finished here; I would be a bully if I continue a battle of wits with a completely unarmed man.

@AlamoBuck Comon dude so your saying because they weren't "a peaceful civilized" people its acceptable for the your "civilized" lifestyle to be forced on the natives ultimately killing them from diseases your ancestors brought over. Try that in africa today see what the UN has to say about it. And for the final time Saturnalia=xmas. Romans ancestry damn ya'll were the worst ones. Its a known fact africa is a crazy place always has been too much western influence (guns).

@Jetr5115 (P. 2) Native Americans made war on each other and many practiced human sacrifice. Arabs enslaved everyone, and forced conversions at the point of a sword. As if you even know who my ancestors were...but I will put their morality up against the morality of anyone else's ancestors and come out smelling like a rose.

@Jetr5115 (P. 1) Good luck trying to fabricate your imagined link between Saturnalia and Thanksgiving. They are completely unrelated. As far as my ancestors, you are clueless. I'm not descended from Massachusetts pilgrims or ancient Romans. But I can tell you this: European descendants held slaves for a few centuries and spent a few decades on genocide. Africans spent countless centuries enslaving each other and cannibalizing the slaves.

@AlamoBuck Sigh you are the most misguided person i don't know. First off what its the name thanksgiving now who gave you your harvest? The natives did they just give pilgrims food no pilgrims took it. I've already told you the practices of giving thanks for a bountiful harvest (saturnalia) is linked to the modern day practice of christmas. Accept it your ancestors were grimy. And MLK day is in celebration of progress black people have made despite black genocide.

@Jetr5115 When making an accusation, the burden of proof lies with the accuser. And there is no evidence of this. You are apparently ignorant of what Thanksgiving is; are you American? Because every American knows that it is a celebration of thanks for a bountiful harvest. It is not a day to celebrate genocide. It would make as much sense to say that Martin Luther King day is a celebration of Native genocide. It is complete ignorance and anti-American bigotry run amuck.
-
@AlamoBuck and you base this on what evidence?
-
@Jetr5115 Which is true, but completely irrelevant to the American Thanksgiving celebration.
-
@AlamoBuck "just admitted defeat"? Uh no clearly stated in this video and what I'am positive you will find in an American history book the spanish conquistadors came over and started encomienda which basically made slaves out of the natives then the dirty pilgrims came over carrying disease killing a good amount of the population then as stated in the video the ungrateful self entitled self righteous greedy racist inbred slowly but surely used superior arms to kill them facts so stfu
@AlamoBuck No 1 has more blood on his hands than the white man. No matter where he has gone on this planet, he has murdered, raped and stole. And since when does a civil war btw a ppl give any1 the right to instigate the situation and murder them off? The way I see it your mentality is off because you take no responsibility. And it has everything to do with Thanksgiving. You believe what you believe and I'll believe what I believe. Peace!

@AlamoBuck No that's not what I meant. I meant that leaving would let those who have made these crimes off the hook, especially because they have not paid for what they have done and their descendants benefit from what they have done. My logic is not flawed and Im not going to go through this much longer with you. I don't see what the problem is with what I said...you just took it the wrong way. And I don't have to give anything back God's will will be done.
