  • Why is the term "Indian" still used for first nations people? Come on now. These people are not from India.

  • When you have an incoming or invading people from a foreign land, the expectation is there will be fighting for awhile, then terms of peace, then some assimilation on both sides, then a continuation of the existing cultures w/ some synthesis in the middle. In the 1492 colonization, you have fighting, then whites draw the terms, betray their own terms, fight w/ superior technology and subjugate the natives to nothing. Same w/ Palestine.

  • So nice to be peace warrior and to have the honour to struggle for the IRA.

    Hope you brought your bow and arrow.
