“The letter also asks teachers to understand that Thanksgiving is a “time of mourning” for many Indian people and a “reminder of 500 years of betrayal.”....PITY PARTY ALERT!....They fealt so betrayed, they opened up casinos everywhere!
Stupid people need these administrators to tell them they are victims and how to feel about it.
Here's a suggestion for any libs reading this: $1 tax per meal on Thanksgiving to go to those tribes who don't have casinos. BTW I mourn every time I drive home from a casino.
What a bunch of pure ignorance and white liberal guilt! But this is the way the mentally deranged liberal thinks.
It is PC gone too far.
These people are morons. They need to learn their real history.
In Virginia, the site of the first real Thanksgiving, the Pamunky and Mattoponi American Indian tribes (the politically correct term in Virginia) annually present a "tax tribute" of a turkey and deer to the Governor the day before Thanksgiving.
This is silly. I have not seen better Thanksgiving celebrations than those in Seattle. The few crazies in Seattle have taken over. The schools are becoming “indoctrination centers” with torture soon to follow. The left side of the Cascades is creeping closer to liberal BC.
I have been doing some research, for genealogical purposes,on the Sullivan expedition of the Revolutionary war and I can’t believe the way it is being rewritten as a massacre of the Iroquois Indians instead retribution for the massacre and scalping of women and children by the Iroquois at a village near present day Easton, PA.
They like to write about how the troops, under the direction of George Washington, burned the orchards of the Iroquois. They don’t mention that these orchards were planted by the Indians with the help of the Catholic priests.
Wouldn’t this violate the liberals idea of seperation of church and state if the Indians view this as a spiritual and religious day of mourning? Guess the only thing that violates that is a Christian holiday, huh?
Thanksgiving Day has nothing whatever to do with the Indians (er, Native Americans) at all. Period. Full stop. It was first set aside by G. Washington as a day to give thanks to God for all our blessings. And that’s the problem for these liberal loons: they want to give thanks to the government.
What a load of crap.
The insanity never ends in that city. The re-invention of American Indian culture is just as insane. They were nothing more than barbaric murdering savages at constant war with each other. The fake “culture” colorfull ceremonial dress, stupid dances etc. we see on display today never existed.
The “mother earth” worship they are now trying to claim as traditional native culture is a UN invention launched in the early 60’s with input from native activists who conned young students into creating masks and “art” which were sealed in the UN’s new world religion’s “ark of the covenant” (a bastardization of Judeo-Christian Ark of the covenant) and carried to the UN building when it was officially launched on the first “earth day” celebration.
This “mother earth” concept which is being brainwashed into native Indian culture and held up as the “traditional Indian culture of their ancestors” has been cultivated ever since.
I think the PC types in Seattle are confusing Thanksgiving with Columbus Day.
The atheists ruin Christmas and the indians make me feel guilty about Thanksgiving!....A pox on them all!...Pass me a drumstick please and thank you Lord for this bounty!
“In terms of what they were seeing in some of the use of the feathers and those things because those are of spiritual and ceremonial significance to us,”.....That’s all fine and good but your guilt trip isn’t working....
There is not one person living who cannot trace his ancestry back to being conquered at one time or another by another. Boo Hoo.. cry me a river. Don't Care... You can focus on acts that your ancestors had to endure, or you can focus on your life... your pick.
Got their names?
If they can complain aobut the "spiritual significance of feathers" what about the "spiritual significance of paying your debts".
The Connecticut Indians are mourning rerduced revenues at their casinos. I bet they still have their doors wide open on Thanksgiving day....

Message to redskins: Conquest happens. My ancestors kicked your ancestors’ asses. Our borders to Mexico are open, if you prefer to leave.
Word has it that the statewide school tax we just voted down suddenly is passed in King County from “late votes”! What is it going to take to get Washingtonians off their lazy butts and begin to clean up our corrupt state?
