The Americans started the fight in Iraq and decided not to finish the fight The soldiers became heroes and came back in boxes. The soldiers defended the freedoms of the homeland and the politicians put them in harm's way. The high cost of freedom is paid by the blood of the brave. When you see a person in military uniform tell that person thanks for a job well done.
Well then put a fence around your farm and stay inside . You will feel very comfortable reliving 200 year old battles and wallowing in self pity , or festering in hate . But by no means go out and interact with your closest neighbour .
The Americans finished the fight , their problem is they are to nice and politically correct to maintain the peace .
Have you ever observed what Canada looked like at Confederation and what it looks like today? You have the balls to bring up "Manifest Destiny"?
He'll probably claim that Canada treated the Indians better than the U.S. did. And you know something? He's right, they did. So I guess that makes it OK.
Yep. And the Canadians were so polite! They said "Sore-ry we're stealing your land. Have some poutine."
That's all us savages ever wanted, really. We're good with the rape, the torture, the mass murder, the mutilation, the genocide. We're just terribly upset by rudeness.
Good with or good at it? (minus the rape of course...historically speaking Native Americans seemed pretty content with the kidnapping, torturing, pillaging, enslaving, burning, killing and mutilating but stayed clear of the rape thing.)
Canada's Apartheid.
Canada has treated it's first nations horabbily. The Canadian Gov't need to increase funding for Addictions Prevention, start providing better housing and job skills..
Canadians love to pride themselves as not being as racist to our neighbors to the south.. but trust me, when it comes to First Nations in Canada, Canadians in many ways surpass the USA's racism and bigotry.
On HWY #1 in Saskatchewan, I saw a Indian lady wrapped up in a hudson bay blanket sitting on the side of the freeway in the middle of the winter.
I could not pull my rig over in time, nor would it be safe. I called the RCMP and asked them to do a Welfare check on the lady.. the minute I said she was Native, I was told she can keep care of herself and was hung up on..
Harper rejects calls for aboriginal women inquiry
This bigotry reaches the Federal Gov't too.
Your back hurts and you're snappy... so I will have to revisit this at a later date.
I was pretty much agreeing with you up until that last post.
But you're right, again. I'm not gonna do much worth doing in this mood. I'm out. Be good, be safe.
The Canadian government screwed the Indians back then,
But French men in Quebec and Ontario married them first....;-):lol:
