To the American Indian land ownership was nearly incomprehensible. To the Indian you could no more own the earth than you could the sky, or the ocean.
- Quote from some site that I Googled in between Googling “Bea Arthur emerges from ocean, doesn’t realise her swimsuit has somehow fallen off.”
I’m what you would call a sensitive guy. Years ago I saw Dances With Wolves at the awesome Wampatuck Cineplex and walked away with a deep understanding of Native Americans.
I learned that they killed buffalo for fun and that although caring white guys like Kevin Costner tried to help them, they still insisted on being driven off the continent….there’s just no pleasing some people.
An entire tribe would die if you so much as sneezed in their direction. I imagine that’s whycome you don’t see a lot of Native Americans lined up for the flu shot. It could kill ‘em as easy as the flu itself.
So every year around Thanksgiving instead of hearing Native Americans giving thanks for turning their crappy teepees into convenient Wal-Marts, I gotta turn on the news and watch them dress up as Native Americans and bury Plymouth Rock.
They cover it with sand like my 4-year-old nephew might do if he hadn’t outgrown his sandbox 2 years ago and then they mumble some stuff about “stealing the country etc…” while conveniently leaving out the $24.50 worth of beads that we gave them for Manhattan.
Then they go home to their casinos and get drunk on fire water while a mild ocean breeze gently blows the sand from off the rock.
All this when their philosophy is “The earth is our mother.”
Oh! Did the earth squeeze you out of her body part that we never mention by name you ingrate? That’s what my mother would say…..then I’d tell her to leave me to be alone with my action figures and the whole thing would end with us spitting at each other and me running back into my room and defiantly blasting Gilbert O’Sullivan music.
So to you reader, I say Happy Thanksgiving.
And if you happen to be Native American, I say make up your fucking mind….and don’t forget to check out Old Navy….its over where your ancestors are buried and they’re open on Thanksgiving!…..You’re welcome.
Suck it up, Dresses Like Half-Pint!….
….. and I’ll have a rum and coke, Hon.
