I watched Woodruff on PBS out of curiosity. The lies they were spewing about all this while spewing about the lies that Trump was spewing was quite comical!
The celebration of a Wop subcontractor blundering into Central America with a 500 year old Norwegian map, with financing from the Spanish Crown ...has always escaped me. Also, I have very little sympathy for the American Indian (or Latino, or African, or Jew) since they have repeatedly chosen to cast their lot with the Democratic Party...exchanging their pride, self sufficiency, self respect in exchange for free stuff. Before the great Indian welfare state began, I worked the logging industry for years with Indian co-workers, great workers, good men, good friends. Giveaways have destroyed that maybe forever. Welfare in it's various forms killed far more Indians than the US Army ever did.
Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.
Why not just cancel the whole damn holiday? The only people who get it off are gov and bank employees. For everyone else, it's just another work day. Columbus didn't even land on the mainland.
Ive been on several reservations and this is always the recurring theme. But they’re at one with the earth! Used to spend a lot of time in BC. White man gets to catch only a couple of salmon. The indians will gill net the entire bleeping river! One guy I worked with caught over 2000# of salmon over a weekend doing it. “Those fish are belonging to us, it’s our way of life”. Along with the massive drug and alcohol usage on the rez. AND up there, they don’t pay any taxes! But they sure get all the bennies.
That picture ^ ^ ^ of a rez dump can't be right. There's not any nearly new refrigerators or washing machines or outboard motors

It's actually the edge of most any holler in Kentucky or Tennessee.

Inholding on some National Forests I've seen too.
The desert is a true treasure for him who seeks refuge from men and the evil of men. In it is contentment In it is death and all you seek (Quoted from "The Bleeding of the Stone" Ibrahim Al-Koni)
