....The colonization of the New World was a watershed in the odyssey that carried Homo sapiens from its African birthplace to the entire globe. The stories of the trailblazers who accomplished that feat deserve to be told. Their remains are the shared patrimony of all Americans and, indeed, all peoples everywhere....

That says it all!

The law is blatant thuggery passed by Liberals to make nice-nice with “native Americans.” Ever growing evidence that “native Americans” were no such thing — that the first Americans came from Europe and were later slaughtered by the ancestors of today’s “native Americans” — drive the PC crowd insane. Cultural anthropology is now as much of a “science” as social justice.
