US Military Is at War With Indigenous People: Not Just Geronimo, Tomahawk Missiles, Apache Helicopters — Using Any Native American Term Is Racist; Indian Activist Demands Apology

Hey Winona, I find it offensive that you're using a butchered French last name. Why don't you do something productive for a change?

Geronimo was a terrorist. He probably killed a larger percentage of the American polulation in his day than UBL did. He attacked predominantly civilian targets and his band raped women and then killed, or enslaved them and their children. Seems appropriate to use his name for UBL.

If we take their advice, and drop all Native American names, theirs will be a dead and forgotten culture. "Apache," "Tomahawk," these are words we use out of respect for a proud and noble people who defended their lands despite their inevitable defeat.

It's called WAR!

We won, you lost.

DEAL WITH IT!

We had better weapons/technology and we beat you.

Nobody "slaughtered" anybody. The Indians ARE STILL HERE!

They are not wiped out, just reduce in number and have been playing the victim card like good democrats.

And BTW, the Indians were “slaughtering” each other for centuries before we got here, just like the damn Arabs!

Want to point a finger at atrocities? Look in the mirror!

Nothing makes a culture die out faster than to forbid any reference to it. Now I am going to put on my Hawaiian shirt and have a luau. Hawaiians are smarter.

Personally, i'm a bit surprised that Indians would object to names used by the American military. It should be a source of pride for them. On the other hand, it may be simply a few activists who always seem to need a "cause", something to whine about. Hey, that makes them just like liberals!

As for Indian history, what was done to them was/is a national disgrace and something no true American should be proud of. Europeans came here, stole their land, killed-off tens-of-millions of Buffalo, their main source of food, clothing, and shelter. And as usual, it was all done in the name of greed, not progress, greed, just like things are done today. Did the Indians kill Whites back then? Sure they did. Wouldn't you have? And BTW, it was the White man who first introduced scalping.

We have allowed ourselves to become a twisted society. We put the entire world on welfare (see:foreign aid) in the hope that they would like us. (yet when it comes to helping a relative handful of Indians, our own people, we complain) Then, we send our military around the world forcing people to live as we say they should, as if our country and society are perfect. Then, in our national stupidity, we have the gall to wonder why they hate us.

America is on a path to doom, a self-inflicted doom. We will be destroyed by our own weakness and stupidity. I just wonder if the Mexicans and Muslims will do a better job, since they are obviously the next holders of this country. Perhaps it's best. Weak, stupid people have no right to their own country.

OK, here's your apology:

The United States is truly sorry that it possessed a far superior military, more sophisticated weaponry, and greater resources than you were able to wage against us. We are sorry that you lost. We are sorry that you have been unable to take back what we rightfully won through a precedent has far-reaching and common historical basis.

Furthermore, we are also sorry for giving free land to you, special demographic status, and legal accommodations and exemptions that other minority groups do not enjoy.

Furthermore, we are sorry for granting you licenses to run casinos in states where others cannot.

Furthermore, we are sorry for naming significant military arsenal for native Americans. We are sorry for honoring their legacy and honoring their significance in your history.

Furthermore, we are sorry for naming sports teams after native Americans. We are sorry for revering them and honoring their legacy.

without the free publicity nobody would even know indians existed. Shut up and quit being offended at everything like college taught you to do.

Yeah boys, keep the hate coming. I just love your comments.

Anon 11:48 PM, it's not hate, it's reality. Try opening your eyes and actually look at how the United States id falling apart because of Liberal and Muslim agendas.

You may deny it now, but unless you are willing to subject yourself to Islamic rule, your future will be very bleak if you are a non-Muslim.

So, based on your logic, we have a right to invade and loot most of the 3rd-world countries?

Here's a deal. We won't use any words or concepts that have anything to do with indians, and you guys do the same with white people.

Nowk get out of our western-styled houses, out of our America-invented cars, and off our American-taxpayer funded roads.

For a start.
