Thread Name: Icelandic Vikings In Mall of America....
Subject: RE: Icelandic Vikings In Moll of America....
Look, folks. A Viking is a sea pirate from the early middle ages, originally from Scandinavia. No matter how many sports teams call themselves the Vikings, the actual Vikings were a brutal, thieving bunch of men. If you put on a presentation at a mall and showed the horrible things they did, customers would go away upset and disgusted. They preyed upon their neighbors and they preyed upon foreigners, they didn't care.

The good people were the Norse people. Give them the credit they deserve.
