[Behind Liberal Lines]

So...much like the haunted house in Poltergeist, Ithaca is built on top of an ancient Indian burial ground...?

That might help explain why...Ithaca is the City of Evil.

[BenLurkin]

Explains the demonic presence there.

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

I don’t mean to be disrespectful to the Indians who may be offended, but this is just funny.

[Dilbert San Diego]

So then, since it is built on sacred Indian grounds, will they tear down the city and the college, to prove they are liberal???

[PAR35]

Let’s all embrace the liberal solution:

Demolish the town (without compensation) and the universities and return it to the redskins as a ‘sacred site’.

[Ingtar]

Also known as Indian land fills. The bodies were discarded on the pile with the rest of the trash. I’m not sure why they are considered sacred now.

[Behind Liberal Lines]

As Homer Simpson might say, “D’oh!”

[HiTech RedNeck]

So now will American Indians insist that Ithaca be dug up to recover all the remains, or relocated to be off of it?

This ought to be interesting. Real interesting.

[Sacajaweau]

I have a tremendous amount of research that I’ve done over a period of 30 years....and would love a showdown. I have “grave” doubts.

[dp0622]

I’m just guessing here, but aren’t the majority of dead humans underneath a lot of structures?

I would figure as a culture falls it is built upon and it’s people are under the new culture’s homes.

but i could be wrong.

[McGruff]

The whole state is native American territory.

And they all hated each if I remember my American history class from the 1960s.

[skeeter]

Ithaca city council member hears from irate townsfolk at monthly town council meeting.

[doug from upland]

tear it down

[I want the USA back]

All inhabitants of Ithaca are now tainted with racism. The only way out of this is to tear down the city and for all to bow down in submission and beg forgiveness for what they didn’t do but are guilty for because White Guilt is transmitted through DNA.

[DoughtyOne]

What?

Parts of the United States are built on locations of older civilizations?

OMG, first time this has ever happened.

Call the global warming group. They’ll want to know.

MIDI - CITY OF NEW ORLEANS

Welcome to a city that is evil...values that made us great they always disdain
They work hard for all their foolish causes...I have wondered, are they naive or insane?

There's a constant search for victimhood...if you're successful, you're no good
The public discourse they're sure to enflame
When it's time to take a stand...to enemies they lend a hand
'Cause America is always who is to blame

Ithaca's a city that is evil...it's evil way down deep into its core
It is filled with those who really hate their country...every one of them, it seems, is a far leftist whore

If you look around you'll see them out protesting...I guess they don't have showers because they smell
If you favor male and female marriage...they will greet you by telling you "Go to hell"

There's a constant search for victimhood...if you're successful, you're no good
The public discourse they're sure to enflame
When it's time to take a stand...to enemies they lend a hand
'Cause America is always who is to blame

Ithaca's a city that is evil...it's evil way down deep into its core
It is filled with those who really hate their country...every one of them, it seems, is a far leftist whore

If you have a gun for your protection...that is when all their panties get in a wad
You can freak them out...it's very easy...just by telling them that you believe in God

There's a constant search for victimhood...if you're successful, you're no good
The public discourse they're sure to enflame
When it's time to take a stand...to enemies they lend a hand
'Cause America is always who is to blame

Ithaca's a city that is evil...it's evil way down deep into its core
It is filled with those who really hate their country...every one of them, it seems, is a far leftist whore

[henkster]

Well we should tear it all down then. Sounds like a good idea.

[ETL]

Gorgeous country up that way in Upstate, NY, if you've never been. Especially this time of year (Fall foliage season). I highly recommend the following state parks: Watkins Glen State Park (first pic below), Robert H. Treman SP (2nd pic), and Taughannock Falls SP (3rd)

[FourtySeven]

Oh man this is going to make their heads explode up there! Talk about a connundrum: keep the liberal bastion or honor the dead Indians. What to do, what to do?

Excuse me while I engage in a bit of schadenfreude!

And where’s Nelson from the Simpsons to go “HA-HA”?

[Jim from C-Town]

The pre Columbian Indian cultures where ALL stone age peoples. Even the Aztecs and Maya Cultures where war like stone age men. Their where few with any written language and even fewer with more than a cursory form of civilization. Fewer still had much of what would be recognized as ‘culture’.

Perhaps as many as 100 million paleo Indians resided in the Americas prior to Columbus. As many as 90% of them where wiped out by the Columbian Exchange due to diseases like Small Pocks, Influenza and other diseases they had no immunity or physical ability to combat.

By the time the English started truly settling the North American continent, it was mostly empty of people.

[VinL]

There’s a very high suicide rate at Cornell, relative too other universities- “gorging out”- (jumping into the gorges).

Know of an instance where a kid, coming home from some beers, started walking on the footbridge railing-— fell in- never seen again.
