Thread Name: BS: Canada's First Nations Rising Up!
Subject: RE: BS: Canada's First Nations Rising Up!
Well, I guess I am gonna have ta try ta bite my tongue harder than I ever bit it before. I have seen the white man and the red man up close and personal... hunting, fishing, lumbering, mining... I am one generation removed from scratching an existence out of the poor soil and fly infested bog country where NO red man ever stepped (and I have one HELLuva story about THAT alone!). I respect real men, be they white or red or yellow or black or purple polka dot. But this "rally the troops and stand up" and say "Enough of seeing our mother earth stripped, raped, and demolished in the name of progress and energy consumption. Enough of this colonial state of being. Enough of..." WTF???

I have seen enough shit from both sides to fill an entire thread more than once. I hope this shit disturber is shunned by my native elder brothers or at least toned down a notch to reflect reality. Young men are easily led by shit disturbers and this is just one more slap in the face of real men... white, red, black... you get my drift.

If this guy wants to help his native brothers to the north, he is welcome to investigate the corruption of the leaders of whites and reds over recent history. THAT is what NEEDS to be done. Not an "uprising". That's just some guys, whites and reds, trying to put some money in THEIR bank accounts. It's shameful.

And, no... I actually DID hold my tongue.
