Congratulations on your silver lining :)
I saw a lady the other day with so many random tattoos. It looked like someone was using her for practice. Ugly and pathetic.
Well, that would scar the country and get rid of the hippies (by murdering them) and Native Americans (by subsequently executing them). That’s your goal?
Hoe dare they use the rainbow? Everybody knows that it now belongs to the queers!
As many Indian "braves" got what they "deserved" for doing exactly the same thing.
Custer got what "he deserved" because militarily he behaved stupidly. Anyone who's ever been to the Little Bighorn battlefield can see in a moment that Custer fully realized the size of the force he was up against, but decided to attack anyway.
As for the dubious claims of "reporters" of various stripes, they should be regarded with the same disdain conservatives have for all "reporters."
He’s not the Judge, just a witness.
Dang. That's almost impossibly bada$$.
“I keep getting the snark from my teen stepdaughter “It’s my body and you aren’t allowed to say anything”.
How do you come back after that?”
If she is under 18, living under your roof, and you are paying the bills, then yes, you are allowed to say something. if she is out on her own, paying her own way, you can only make suggestions. IOW, my house, my rules.
I can actually smell that picture.
Nuke the site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
Not me. I’ll pull for the redskins on this one.
GO FOR IT ,CRAZY HORSE.
Every single one"
Clarification: I meant that at every one of these gatherings there are instances of rape.
I do not purport that every single woman there gets raped.
I should have been more clear.
Custer was not militarily stupid. The Army at the time was far more worried about the Indians melting away than they were about a determined fight. They also had no idea just how many there were. Gen Crook got his butt handed to him a week earlier - so much so that he pulled back and didn’t dare take to the field for several months - and he had more men and fewer opponents than Custer was stuck with.
In that day, the US Army didn’t find the enemy and slink away. By the time Custer realized what he was up against, it was too late.
And the Black Hills gold rush of 1874 had nothing whatsoever to do with this?!
Assuming you are supporting her you simply tell her that as long as you are providing food, clothing, shelter etc. for that body you DO have a say and if she doesn’t like it then tell her to find a way to support herself. That is approximately what my parents would have told me and meant it. They didn’t put up with that kind of crap and if you do you will still be putting up with it when she is forty if you are still around. I never wanted a tattoo but if I had I would damned sure have known not to get one as long as I was dependent on my parents for anything.
Guess that puts us on opposite sides. I got over the Errol Flynn version of Battle of the Little Big Horn history a long time ago. I think of it as an armed encroachment of Federal authority on people exercising their rights on their own treaty recognized property. In this case it’s a patchouli oil infested encroachment of smelly half a$$ed white neo-pagans on the descendants of those people. Another massacre of sorts might just be in order.
Have you been to the battlefield?
As I wrote: The Sioux reneged on the treaty every bit as much as the US government did.
The official [secret] policy of the US government was that they wanted the Sioux out of the Black Hills.
The official [secret] policy of American Indians was: "If you Wasichun are crazy enough to give us free stuff and promises not to attack us, we'll take them. But we aren't giving up anything in exchange, because no one can 'own' land."
People forget that the Indians were every bit as sneaky and underhanded in their dealings with us as we were with them. It's a sad aspect of human nature.
One thing I did inherit from somewhere; and that’s a thick skin. After almost 69 years on planet Earth, it is standing me in good stead. - As a kid, I wilted at anything. Now, not so much. I’ll leave it to God to sort out at the end of the age; to sort out what He deems important & what He does not. - Paul referred to it as “useless genealogy”; so I doubt genealogy will be too big a deal in that realm.
