And what would be wrong with just having a separate day for indigenous people and keep Columbus day?
Always tit for tat, never "inclusive". And it always ends up being about tits. There is no Quid Pro quo. With liberals, they want the quid. All take, no give. It kills me when they say "I love this country". Oh, yeah. Tell me 3 reasons. It's all throwback to hippy days. They hated America and Vets. It was a mistake they won't make again. So, they lie. But, they still hate. Rant over. Sorry.

Its just business at that point Rocky.
If they had the money to tell the Tribe to eff off.......they could have kept it Columbus Day.

Yes and to put things into perspective Ada only has a population of 17k or so. Get a couple of "indigenous" on the city council and this happens. Trust me Oklahoma is by far the most conservative state in the union and you can take that one to the bank.....Wyoming might argue that point.

What do you expect up there in "the nations"? You do realize that most of that casino money comes from Texas? Drive thru the parking lot and check the car tags at that monstrosity at Thackerville sometime. Ada is the Chickasa HQ, Anaotubby and co. have lots of power there.

And I have Missouri Osage running in my veins, the very story Granny told me about our Scoth/Irish folk coming over here and trading whiskey and rifles to the local Osage proves we were/ARE much more industrious inventive people.

Ya, lets recognize if not for our ancestors they'd still be sleeping in tp's and flinging sticks at supper! fuggin weak city council! I would suggest you read book "1491" by Charles C, Mann, You might be surprised at how advanced the pre-Columbian "Indians" actually were. As an aside, what the hell is wrong with living in a tee pee and flinging sticks at supper?

As an aside, what the hell is wrong with living in a tee pee and flinging sticks at supper? Not taking sides or anything, but I’d had issues with the lice. Then again mebbe not. Might have already been use to them. A story I always found interesting. I think it was in MacKenzies memoirs of staying in a lodge of one of the northern plains tribes. Apparently there was a small naked child walking around in front of everyone around the cookfire. He stated it expelled a stream of excrement from it’s lower fundament. The mother picked up the baby and scraped it’s rear clean with her butcher knife, wiped said knife off on her buckskin dress, and then stirred that evenings pot of supper with the knife before returning it to her sheath. Ahhh! Grand times!!

Meanwhile up north about other things that don't matter: South Dakota tribes seek repeal of law banning them from MinnesotaPIERRE, S.D. - Tribes in South Dakota are trying again to gain state legislative support to repeal an archaic law that bans them from Minnesota. The State-Tribal Relations Committee voted this week to introduce a resolution during the 2020 legislative session requesting that Congress repeal the 1863 Dakota Removal Act. The law forced Native Americans onto South Dakota reservations following the 1862 conflict that included the mass hanging of 38 Dakota men. Minnesota passed a resolution supporting its repeal in 2009. The South Dakota Senate State Affairs Committee failed to pass the same resolution during the 2019 session without any discussion. ksfy

Well, they had left the autoclave in the other tipi.... the knife was stainless of course....
