I dropped her off this morning and saw girls (and boys) wearing grass skirts, some of them with coconut bras too. I'm not sure what else is going on, but it doesn't seem very respectful of a native culture that we have seriously fucked over. Would they have a "Native American Day" and let kids come in wearing feathered headdresses?

Or am I reading too much into it?

Well now I’m saying you can’t be offended by what I said. You have to agree with me, because freedom of speech or whatever.

And again... you are not making sense nor are you being mature to a nuanced conversation. It would be a waste of time to continue to speak with you in good faith, if you're just gonna do the kindergarten equivalent of " I am Rubber, you're glue" .

Please grow up and learn how to have nuance.. I know it's tough to be mature and hear opinions you may not like, but part of growing up is having a factual conversation without emotions, in order to have an educated conversation with sustenance...

Nothing riles up Americans more than being told “no”. I owe you nothing. I was simply pointing out that a member of a country/culture that violently subjugated another country/culture doesn’t morally or ethically get to decide that what they do or say is or isn’t offensive to the country/culture that they violently subjugated.

Nothing riles up a troll more, than facts.. and you don't understand nuance.. so it's okay to deflect from the issue and point I am making ... it takes intellectual intelligence and a willingness to be unbiased... Trolls can't do that... glancing through your profile, really shows who you are and what you stand for... which is really nothing, but trolling...

Enjoy your meaningless endeavors online..
