Happy National Genocide (Thanksgiving) Day!
Huffington Post ^ | 11-25-2014 | Nicole Breedlove

Posted on 11/26/2014 5:05:16 AM PST by Citizen Zed

Thanksgiving has never been a celebratory holiday in my family. Whenever my family did cook we always gave thanks that all the Native Americans weren't wiped out when Columbus "discovered" America.

My teachers made it seem like Thanksgiving was a holiday to look forward to. The New York City public education system told me what Thanksgiving was all about. I was very careful to regurgitate what they taught me when tested so I wouldn't get a failing grade. When I was older though I was told the truth by my family.

Whenever someone asked what I was doing for Thanksgiving I proudly stated that I no longer celebrate it. Thanksgiving day should be known as National Land Theft and American Genocide Day.

Armed settlers -- which we tell our children were God fearing, gentle, sharing, kind Pilgrims -- invaded a Pequot village. They also set the village, which included many children, on fire. Those who were lucky enough to escape the fire were systematically sought, hunted down and killed. While many, including historians, still debate what exactly happened this day, also known as the Pequot Massacre, it directly led to the creation of "Thanksgiving Day." This is what the governor of Bay Colony had to say days after the massacre, "A day of thanksgiving. Thanking God that they had eliminated over 700 men, women and children."

So when you sit down to dinner this year, look at your family, serve the food and tell each other what you are most thankful for, think about the origins of Thanksgiving. Think about the countless Native Americans who lost their lives so you can carve a turkey and get the best deals on Black Friday.

“I was very careful to regurgitate ... “ Miss Breedlove

Well, you know what they say: “You can never be too rich or too thin.”

The first thanksgiving was actually a game between the Cowboys and the Redskins. The name Cowboys was racist and too aggressive towards the Redskins so they changed the name to Pilgrims.

Didn’t matter, the Redskins still got slaughtered.

I can't wait to hear what they say about Christmas this year.

They will say how horrible it was for Jesus to inconvenience all those animals, when he was born in the stable. They will say that Mary and Joseph should have let Herod's soldiers slaughter Jesus, because, after all, He was probably just another white male, and all white males need to be killed off.

On the other hand, I don't give a rat's rear end what that wench thinks about anything. I have plenty of turkey, ham and vegetables, and I WILL enjoy it all immensely. Would it be in poor taste if I said I don't care if she chokes on hers?

And continued to do worse to each other AND to the palefaces.

The only holiday liberals get to celebrate guilt-free is Walpurgis Night.

I am positive that no Native Americans were harmed in producing that turkey I have in the fridge, and I never shop on Black Friday, so I guess I’m off the hook.

Happy Thanksgiving, Nicole!

There you go, using FACTS to discredit yet another anti-American, leftist, diatribe.

Who do you think you are, anyway?

A family of great historical ignorance.

Worse is an understatement. Read the book “a fate worse than death” some time. It will raise the hair on the back of your neck...

After the Pilgrims abandoned socialistic agriculture for private plots, they had more food than they could eat. A brisk trade in food & furs sprang up among Indians & Pilgrims. No time for war when you’re improving your lot through peaceful commerce.

Nicole Breedlove is going to have a miserable day tomorrow. She’ll spread her gloom to those around her, I’m sure. Probably an atheist, come to think of it.

We’ll be giving thanks to our generous Lord.

Honey, there's always enough grievance to go around for every nationality and race on this orb. And if we all were to obsess over the wrongs done to our ancestors no one would have time to recognize the blessings we have and give thanks for them, the real meaning of this holiday, and would instead be consumed by hate.

Were my Cherokee ancestors victims of that icon of the Democratic Party, Andrew Jackson? Absolutely. My Delaware folks were cheated blind by the Penns and had to move on to Ohio where they were badly mistreated by their Iroquois "brothers". Were members of my Scottish clan among those bayoneted and disposed of in the mass graves at Culloden? Yep. How about those Huguenots on my mother's side? Am I supposed to hate all Catholics because of the misdeeds of their co-religionists? And don't even get me started on what my ancestors Isaac and Sara (you know, the ones who would have gotten me in hot water under the Nuremburg laws) went through.

Give it up, STFU, and be thankful.

As I will be sharing Thanksgiving with modern day descendants of Native American Indians in my family, I warmly invite the author to kiss my great white devil posterior for posting such divisive filth of a day that we all come together as one in thanks to our mutual creator.

If she thinks so highly of dead Indians and so low of the white European settlers, she should give all her property to the Indians and deport herself back to Europe or wherever the Hell her family came from.

I think she would fit right in in the Gaza Strip. Or maybe Antarctica. Yeah, she can move to Antarctica. The only continent on the planet that is populated with people who didn’t take land from indigenous tribes.

Dear Darling Nicki,

I am thankful beyond what words can describe that once all the turkeys libs cultivated come home to roost and I and those like me are safely ensconced in fully armed compounds after the liberal induced crash of western civilization, you will be hunted as prey by the ferals and muslims you coddled, worshiped and allowed to run wild. I can easily imagine you will be captured while out foraging, enslaved and forced to their will in any number of the labor and sexual activities they see fit to saddle you with.

Have a great Thanksgiving!
Love,
Normie.

It must be tough being a liberal and so full of guilt over everything.

I am thankful that that old bitch won’t be sitting at my Thanksgiving table skunking the place up with her hate.
