2. Did I say ANYWHERE in my post anything about Israel/Palestine?

I never even thought of that when I saw the GIF. I thought it was an interesting historical record.

13. not everything in the world is about israel, you know. some of us are actually capable of thinking

of other people, other places, other things.

5. at least native americans are allowed to leave the reservations

and buy property, start business, get jobs , shop etc outside of it and have rights as every other american citizen does.

7. you do realize that the indigenous peoples were not even citizens until the act of 1924, yes?

9. yes, i'm talking about right now although i'm sure there is still

prejudice and discrimination .

[niyad]

10. wow--you're "sure" there is still prejudice and discrimination? really? whatever gave you that

idea?

[JI7]

11. the fact they have higher levels of poverty, the same goes for

many other groups like blacks, latinos etc.

anyways , my point is just because there are officially legal rights doesn't mean everything is equal.

16. Hey folks...and you know who you are!

There is a Native American family at my door...they want their land back. WTF do I do? Please tell me! They claim that it is their ancestral plot.

Why oh why did you post this? Woe is me!

17. History is pretty awful, unfortunately.

Though why is that map only restricted to the US?
