...U.S. Army’s 7th Calvary...

Aren't there such things as proofreaders for these news offices any more?

It was a massacre of American GIs, even the wounded and POWs were cruelly murdered to the last man.

Following is a conversation between Custer and one of his scouts:

Scout: Sir, I’ve got good news and bad news.
Custer: Give me the bad news first.
Scout: We’re surrounded by 10,000 indians.
Custer: What’s the good news?
Scout: We won’t have to go back to Kansas!

Tim’s on the right track: it’s a $5,000 fine if you are caught removing an artifact from National Park Service property and could even mean jail time.

Imagine being sodomized by Big Bubba over a tiny little button. It ain't worth it, folks!

“The park memorializes the last stand the Lakota and Cheyenne tribes took...”


That’s funny, when I was going to school it was always referred to as ‘Custer’s Last Stand’.

But for the Indians, it was a Pyrrhic victory. The army was relentless in its pursuit of them. Somewhat ironically news of Custer’s defeat hit the East right in time for the nation’s celebration of its 100th anniversary.

The park memorializes the last stand the Lakota and Cheyenne tribes took against the U.S. Army’s 7th Calvary to preserve their way of life.

I can memorializing all who fought and died, but this is grotesque.

artifacts from the past are popping up more frequently. Visitors found a Civil War General Service cuff button just last week

I'm surprised this is not being attributed to "man made global warming" . . .

“It’s important to think about if you take it, it’s yours, but you cheat everybody else out of it,” said visitor Jeri Francis...

The artifacts have been cataloged in the park’s archives and are now in a storage facility, safe and sound.

So who's "cheating everybody else out of it" now that it is "now in a storage facility, safe and sound" where nobody can ever see it?

Not trying to make anyone here feel old or anything, but something from 1922 is a century old.

A good bit more than a century. More like a century and a half

Um, Battle of Little Big Horn 25 June 1876, 146 years ago. ‘Century old” would be 1922. Arithmetic doesn’t work, another example of illiterate so called journalism

Hi.

I'm pissed. Someone in the Lakota and Cheyenne tribes has my great great uncle Myles Kehoe’s scalp and I want it back

Major U.S. 7th Cav. Hoorah!

I also want reparations.

I will Sioux.
