I think Seattle is referring to the people who displaced and killed Kennewick Man and his ancestors.

Used to live there.

Seattle has become SF north.

Will go for baseball...never as a tourist destination.

Most American Indians don’t mind the term “Indian”, but they do like being referred to by their tribal name (make sure you get it right!).

Anyway, aging hippies in Seattle score yet another meaningless victory for “diversity”.

Ho Chi Minh will soon be honored with a statue there. Or is it Pol Pot?

You mean those wonderful indigenous people that constantly fought amongst each other and stole each others’ land?

***Indigenous Peoples’ Day in Seattle. ***

Wonder if they will cut out a few hearts in sacrifice or maybe have a Morning Star ceremony, with cannibalism afterward.

“Or is it Pol Pot?”

I’m guessing one of the new marijuana stores has that on it’s shelves!
