Almost certainly a repost. And deservedly so.

nor were the colonists hard-working or tenacious. ... many of the colonists were lazy thieves.

I doubt it.

I remember Rush telling a similar story.

article: "nor were the colonists hard-working or tenacious. 1621 was a famine year and many of the colonists were lazy thieves."

Ah ha! That explains present day Massachusetts.

Anyway, the first Thanksgiving feast was in St. Augustine Florida, by Catholic Spaniards, more than 50 years before Plymouth. But that would endanger the myth of Protestant anglo America, so it must be scrubbed and sanitized to ensure Northeastern hegemony.

November 1621. First Thanksgiving. Three days. Pilgrims and Native Americans together. No hoax about that.

A great book about America’s founding entitled The Light and the Glory by Peter Marshall, deals with all that’s posted here and much more. If you’ve never read it and you like American history it’s a really interesting read. Hard times can produce men of character - if their hearts are yielded to their Creator.

Thanksgiving is a celebration of the end of communism in the United States.

"The prevailing condition during those years was not the abundance the official story claims, it was famine and death. The first "Thanksgiving" was not so much a celebration as it was the last meal of condemned men."

Conditions were so bad they were forced to eat lobster (lobster was so plentiful then it was considered a trash food).

"In 1622, Governor William Bradford of the Plymouth Plantation apologized to guests that the only dish he “could presente their friends with was a lobster…"
