These issues are the result of a long history of systematic discrimination and abuse.

Nonsense. The Indians had a weakness for firewater from the word go.

Yeah?

What are they complaining about anyway?

We gave them running water, sewage, ice, cold beer, the wheel and all they do is bitch and complain.

I could get on the rolls of the Cherokee Nation. My nephews and a niece are on the rolls but, F.U. I prefer to be on the winning team and I’m an American.

That’s right “A U.S. M.A.L.E.” as Elvis would say.

And they can stop acting like we overwhelmed them with technology, because they sure would have used the same things if they had thought of it.

Come to think, they did adapt pretty well to lever rifles, dynamite and horses.

And aren’t they so much more comfortable in Levi’s than they would be with a blanket covering their butt?

Roof over their head? Yeah, and it stays in place, right along with the rest of yer stuff.

Hot water, flip a switch to create heat for cooking and to warm up on a cold winters night?

Way effin easier than rubbing two sticks together and faster.

Tell me they wouldn’t have invented that stuff if they could because fk me if they don’t also use the Internet.

Shouldn’t they be thanking Al Gore for free porn and the ability to get news instantly, instead of waiting for an envelope delivered by some guy on a horse, if he lived through the route?

I’ve seen a few of these chumps on airplanes too.

Besides Cowboy and Indian movies and a fun game of 52 pick up thats been rebranded as Cowboys and Indians, WTF have Indian Tribes or individuals contributed to the world?

They can choose to be a victim just as easily as they can choose to win.

I lose, I win, I lose, I win all day long and working for winning beats moping and losing.

And it pays way better...

It's true that alcohol was deliberately used to degrade Indian communities. In what is now California, in the 18th century, the Spanish military wanted to get the native Californian men drunk so they would push their wives-sisters-daughters into prostitution to pay for the whiskey.

That's one reason the heroic Franciscan Junipero Serra --- founder of the California mission system --- worked so tirelessly to keep the Spanish soldiers away from his flock. They were intentionally using alcohol to break down Indian resistance.
