The Sealth Seahawks. I like that.
Bunch of idiots.
Pretty lame move. If they were really sincere, they would cede all of the land now occupied by the city of Seattle back to the ‘Indigenous Peoples’.
This means that it is no longer a Federal holiday. All those ***holes in Seattle need to get their butts to work tomorrow. The Feds don’t have an “indigenous people’s day”.
I grew up in Seattle in the 60’s and 70’s, a great conservative town. It slowly became kalifornicated soon thereafter when the Fawns etal. moved in...***SIGH***
Everyone who thinks so called native americans were always here are too stupid to waste time explaining facts.
They should use May 1st (May Day) to denounce all of the murder committed in the name of Communism.
Oh wait, wrong political ideology.
Like a city council can overturn a federal holiday.
The City of Seattle is run like a junior high school.
To properly celebrate the lifestyle of the 'Indigenous Peoples’ they should ban the use of the wheel and anything made of metal.
They should also require everyone to kill and prepare their own food for the day.
If they’re going to recognize the contributions of those who lived in that area for “hundreds of years,” perhaps they should celebrate the emissaries of the old Russian Czars and their people who migrated to the Pacific Northwest from the 17th century on…
Good fn grief.
If people think Colombus is so attrocious think about what you would do if you went out on a voyage where your creditors pretty much would have you beheaded if you didn’t come back with some payment.
Has anyone ever asked the “indigenous people” what they think of Colombus? I notice they certainly don’t mind the white man’s way of life. Don’t see many of em in teepees or loincloths anymore.
O.K. Christian Europe: universities, orphanages, hospitals, Euclid, Cathedrals, realistic art and on and on and on. Indigenous peoples: Tee Pees, kivas, medicine men, and on and on.
Do the City Council PC fools want to live like the Indigenous? Do the Indigenous want to do the same, reject the European White educations and technology and the religion from which it came, including the white tainted paycheck?
Loons.
Celebrate another unknown useless meaningless minority figure to make them feel good
So...Redskins Day instead?
Idiots like Juan Williams spew that “there was a country here before Columbus.” Really? Well, there was a land mass, for sure, but it wasn’t a country until much later.
Liberals: 30% self-loathing, 30% historical ignorance, 30% arrogance, 10% sawdust
Well, based on their statement Squanto is screwed
“Supporters of the action said it will recognize the rich history of people who have inhabited the area for hundreds of years...”
That would be yoi, whitey.
Bunch of idiots.
The pacific states cause that must be something in the water.
