so then after the genocide on the american indian, old glory might offend current indians because their ancestors were butchered at wounded knee, or marched on the trail of tears eradicated from their land with genocide coming for the next 55 years after...should old glory fly since it is offensive as well??


You go first this time. what do you think?


Anyways, have you EVER been to Lakota Country? Or any powwow anywhere for that matter?

The FIRST thing they do is parade Old Glory, accompanied by an honor guard of Military veterans to the tune of an honoring song, drums, singers, the works cool

..and I'm still recalling the words of Sammy White Eyes, the late and much lamented and very popular Kiowa Master of Ceremonies, who was also a proud ex-Marine.

Shorty after 9/11 he spoke words at the United San Antonio Powwow to the effect that... many people say that we should not go to war, but the truth is these people have already declared war on us.

By "us" he meant his fellow Americans of course.
