[quote name='ambassador_josh' date='Aug 11 2005, 10:37 PM']Where the **** did you copy that from?
Another term that pisses me off is "NATIVE AMERICAN." What a slap in the face. How about we move to a continent, kill off 40 or so MILLION of those who were here first, herd the rest off onto the shittiest land this hemisphere has to offer, then NAME THEM AFTER THEIR OPPRESSORS!
What the **** is that?

woo be ti ye....
B.S.
Like you cry "here first" meaning like the Vikings? PC Indians , Spanish . Migration is human.
Indian DNA is link to Indo China. Just that the Spanish and English were more advanced with, metelergy(guns ,watches,bullets architecture)and world trade they moved to another land and the local squatters werent able to keep it.
But unlike the Mexicans, or Vietnamese and real Indians from India whom all seem to flock here for oppurtunity "PC Americans" still need more , wont assimilate with the masses for thier own benifit. America is now a ocean of multiculture and you cant fight it. No othe race gets tax exempt or as many Federal benifits.
Nothing can justify the social behavoir of the past but thinking one group can setitself aside for self preservation to the extint that it will fight the world at it door
is futile. However Washington "Redskins" is offensive.
But the rest of the PC labels and terms prove my point."PC"Indians dont give a **** about any minority but themselves. Then within the whole they wont ackowledge even their own cause it will cut the pie even more.Tribes fight among themselves.But yet there is the AA colledge that has 20% Indian who has siad they dont mind the Indian nomenclature.Wow ..those 20% should be the most offended in all of colledge.
PC is about how everyone and everything can be offensive.

I think it's stupid.
It's like reperations. LAME.
Lets see if we start doing reperations for past wrongs...
My family is from OK originally, they moved to California in the dust bowl. They got treated like ****, I should get money.
On top of that I'm of Irish heritage. They were treated like ****, I should get more money.
My great grandfather was a blacksmith, he probably worked with chemicals that were bad for him and were a factor in his death. I should get money.
My Great great grandfather was a cowboy, some people didn't like them at the time so I should get yet more money.
To be fair, my family fought on the Confederate side in the civil war mostly because the landowners would press them into service so I probably owe someone some cash over that.
Then there's the "Native American" bit.
They're not native to this land, no one was everyone migrated over.
So lets give the land back to the original holders: the animals.
So how many people CAN you stuff into the middle east area?

the first part pissed me off so much that i stopped reading.
sure there may be more mixed groups combined when compared to white people. but theres still more whiteys than any of the other races, so how are they the minority?

You sound smart, but I have a hell of a time reading your posts in this thread. Some of the spelling is just plain wrong! Metelergy? Try metallurgy. Idealog? Maybe idealogue... Point being, you must not be white.
