[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

WP bullshit and corrupted news. From the longer video, I couldn’t see anyone “surrounding” the drummer who marched up into the face of the tall kid who stood there without grinning or making faces, etc.

Accurate and honest NEWS - an alien concept to the Wash. Post.

ever visit the cliff dwellings in the Southwest? Those guys were AFRAID of their neighboring tribes.

I understand that cannibalism runs rampant where there isn’t a lot of available protein

“So you aren’t willing to believe your own eyes?”

I can and do. I saw a precious child walk up in someone else’s face.

Politics have nothing to do with the event, because a child has no political opinions any adult is required to take seriously.

As to the politics of how this is going to play out in public, the only people who are being “fooled” are ones who think a conservative world includes defending children who disrespect their elders.

These were high school boys waiting for their bus after Friday’s March for Life. The Indian guy decided to get in their faces to try to provoke an incident, the teens were too smart to take the bait, but the media is trying to destroy them anyway.

This continent was dotted with stagnant stone-age cultures that were steadily slouching towards extinction. They were on their way out one way or another - what the 'white man' did manage to accomplish was to save a remnant of a remnant.

"Slouching towards extinction"? From what?

Considering what the Aztecs and the Inca achieved, it wasn't fated that North American Indians would just disappear.

They were actually rather resourceful - adopting horses and guns, expanding trading networks, making alliances with powers they thought would help them - after the Europeans came.

Watch more videos, that isn't what happened.

[freeandfreezing]

the one smirking kid walked up and invaded the drummer’s space.

The kid with the MAGA hat did not walk up to the drummer. He did smile, or "smirk" as you call it, just like the other guy who did walk up, and was just as close to the drummer. But nobody is complaining about the second guy are they?

Or are you also mad at the guy with the Indigenous People's March T shirt and the Antifa style scarf? Is he also "invading the drummer's space"?

And don't you see that there is plenty of space for the drummer to just step around the kid if he wanted to?

Watch the video Here

[CharleysPride]

You are welcome to interpret and justify as you please, nothing you have said is remotely persuasive and my previous comments stand.

Enjoy your Sunday.

[freeandfreezing]

Try watching this video, and tell me you still think the kid walked up to the drummer. You really should try to live in reality, not a leftist fantasy.

Drummer Approaches the kids

I’ll break his nose

The Indian?

Yes. I have been there.

[Tired of Taxes]

Yes, since that first thread, many videos have shown the boys being exploited and harassed.

I was referring exclusively to the North American continent - everything north of the Rio Grande - not the whole hemisphere.

 

 

- after the Europeans came.

 

Which was my point. That gave a big boost to survival and even expansion, though the culture remained stone age - which handicapped them right to the end.

Evidently you have no perspective as to how rough and tenuous day to day survival was pre-European.

Cahokia was impressive. So were the pueblos in the Southwest.

It was even harder in other parts of the world, yet people survived. People whose lives focus on survival can get quite good at it and don't usually go extinct without outside interference.

Yes, and yet they too sputtered out. See below

Among biggest factors for survival of ancient peoples anywhere of any race were climate, geography & terrain. If any of that went wonky in an area they were dedicated to inhabiting it was game over. There was no plan B. It was all about the calories - if not enough could be provided to replace what was expended, it was disaster. The anthropological record is rife with more disaster than success stories - there are many peoples whose culture or DNA came to an end and was never seen again anywhere else. There are many peoples and tribes that no one has ever heard of, and there's reason for it. Just east of where I'm sitting right now, some Spanish monks encountered a very poor tribe who were on their last legs - they were absolutely nearly done for. The Spanish established a sanctuary to help them to recover - if they hadn't intervened, that people would have ended right there, and soon, with no one to remember they even existed. I don't recall how it worked out in the end, whether the tribe eventually relocated to better prospects, joined the Comanche or got wiped out by them. It's been years since I've looked at those papers.
