You're not a member of the Taliban, are you?
Causing criminal damage, illegally disposing of something in a harbour and breaking lockdown and social distancing are all good in your opinion.

Oh dont mind Avro!


He defines "good" in a very simplistic way!


If he makes people smile - then it is GOOD!


If he makes people ANGRY - THEN ITS BETTER!


If he gets people cursing and swearing - then ITS BEST!


Avro has no concept of the possibilities of life beyond "yes", "no" and "FCUK OFF"!

That statue resisted, and took a "fighting stance."

They had no choice really. They were in fear of their lives.

Some Native American tribes no?
Nope. Melanin-deficient types.

Give it up, Moosie. The very simple fact is that in Canada and the United States, every single piece of legislation that discriminated on the basis of race was drafted, passed, and approved by all-white bodies.

And who bought them, and kept them, generation after generation, in slavery? Born, lived, and died in slavery.
Very rare in history. Generally slavery was not hereditary.

Who was it who introduced slavery to North America?

You Native Americans.

Who was it who ended slavery in North America?

White men (and it WAS mainly, or exclusively, white males).

So, if I work for, say, General Motors and go on a public forum and say "General Motors products are overpriced, shoddy, and dangerous," that should be peachy-keen?
I imagine GM might take a dim view of that and possibly fire your ass but hey, I have no problem with it what-so-ever.

When Europeans arrived as colonists in North America, Native Americans changed their practice of slavery dramatically. Native Americans began selling war captives to Europeans rather than integrating them into their own societies as some had done before.

Isn't this one of your forefathers?

You can read about James Vann himself, one of the largest slave owners in the Cherokee nation and a man referred to, in various histories, as a “vengeful” and “excessively cruel” character. The bronze plaque in front of the house mentions, briefly, the hundred of African slaves who worked this land.

Or is it Warren?
