So, I'm sitting on the couch, working on stuff from the office, when I hear, "I'm Eric Estrada and I'm here to tell you about 'Teleco Village.'" My head snapped up and I stared in horror as he spoke about this "new housing developement" building now in Tennessee. Everything is centered around "the lake

This is a soapbox that I can not ignore.

Next you'll be screaming for reparations...

[astriana]

lol I don't have to.

reparations should be made, but they are long, long over due and the general populus of the nation wouldn't understand the point, thus it could lead to confict again, so its a loose-loose situation unfortunately.

Get over it, y'all. The Indians were conquered like so many peoples before them. At least they still have the reservations. That's much more than other conquered peoples have. And before you start screaming for reparations keep in mind that before the Europeans came, American Indians were killing and stealing land FROM OTHER AMERICAN INDIANS.

You say reparations? I say, "After you."

OK frootloop

First Off, as Astriana is pointing out, the damage done is being done TO_DAY, not yesterday. To quote Chris Rock :"when's the last time you saw a bunch of Indians just chilling at the Red Lobster?" Also, you can't compare warfare to tactics like lacing blankets with smallpox and giving them to Indians, nor even the glory of shooting a bunch of people armed with arrows with Machine Guns.

All I can say to people like you is, when the CEOS you worship outsource your job to India or China, I will get a sick glee knowing that you will join the ranks of those conquered, and that you will not "get Over it."
