We Now Have a War on Thanksgiving
Nothing of traditional American culture is sacred anymore. The Anti-American Seattle School District has decided to teach children that Thanksgiving is a time of mourning for American Indians and a "reminder of 500 years of betrayal" by White people.
I've always wondered why, given that Indian tribes competed among each other for territory, Whites are considered to be particularly evil for doing the same thing? Were we not allowed to play because our toys were better?
Just asking.
