In a paradoxical alternate reality, somewhere in another universe, in another dimension there are aliens. These aliens are not of the, little green or gray bug eye variety, no! These aliens are large hardy and robust. They have lots of stamina and they don't sneak up on unsuspecting "country folks" out in the bread basket of America. Nope! They're not the artistic type either that leave pretty geometrical designs in our wheat fields. These aliens don't kidnap or experiment on humans. These aliens don't have huge hovering "mother ships" over major US cities. They don't instantly know or care to know about our language. These aliens are actually pretty normal people (I hope you don't mind that I called them people.)

Don't get me wrong fellow Americans and the few scattered Canadians and other members of the global community that are quite certain that there are a very specific type of alien among us. I am not in anyway insinuating that the UFO's and spacecraft's and alien ships that have been , "found" are not real. Nor am I insinuating that they weren't found chock full of those little green, gray bug eye guys that the government is trying to hide from us. I'm not saying that at all. I firmly believe that you firmly believe that what you think you saw is in actuality what everybody is already convinced that they know it is. You see?

Remember folks, my opening sentence? "In a paradoxical alternate reality, somewhere in another universe, in another dimension there are aliens." These aliens, these very normal, people type aliens, these aliens that don't speak our language because they are not from here and who wish us no harm because we do that really good on our own, these aliens are from another universe. They are from another dimension and I wanted to let you the good people of middle America and all the other good rational places on earth that these aliens are here now! That they live among us and that they are easy to spot.

Personally I don't see anything wrong with just letting these aliens alone. They are not creepy or in anyway unorthodox . I just want the rest of the world no that they have been commi8ng to our humble planet for quite a while now and that they have started to make this place their home. What's interesting is that there is nothing wrong with their home. They're not having any kind of problems that I can figure, that would want them to come over here. They just seem to have been passing by earth on holiday and liked it and decided to stay. It's all quite fascinating really! So if you want to spot one here are a few things you've got to look out for.


1. They look just like you!
2. They eat just like you.
3. They crack dumb jokes, just like you.
4. They, breath just like you.
5. They eat just like you.
6. They work just like you.
7. They have fun just like you.
8. They get all emotional just like yo.
9. They come in different hues of beige to brown, just like you.
10. They are born, live and die just like you.

21 months ago: All of the invaders who drove the Natives from their lands and killed 90% of the indigenous people are aliens.

All of the Mexicans who had been living in the southwest for centuries before the United States declared war against Mexico on May 13, 1846, had more rights to that land than the invading aliens who won that war.
21 months ago: All of the Mexicans who had been living in the southwest for centuries...

Centuries? meaning plural centuries? Not a couple of centuries?
No, 1546 Mexico was a country and "La Raza".

What a total load of fertilizer...

Mexico didn't exist until 1812...However, Mexico's independence would not be recognized by the Spanish crown until September 27, 1821...

Then they borrowed money from FRANCE to install an Emperor called Maximilian.

Maximilian I of Mexico (6 July 1832 – 19 June 1867; born Archduke Ferdinand Maximilian Joseph of Austria) was a member of the Imperial House of Habsburg-Lorraine. After a distinguished career in the Austrian Navy he was proclaimed Emperor of Mexico, during the Second Mexican Empire, with the backing of Napoleon III of France and a group of Mexican monarchists on 10 April 1864.

You really need some south of the border history lessons. Better yet the, er, Mexicans need some south of the border history lessons.

Viva "La Raza". if your actually one of the "La Raza" and not a mongrel 1/16th breed.
21 months ago: Winners of a war take the "rights to the land" from those who had if before. Or they let them keep title to it and tax the hell out of them.

As for aliens in our midst, why of course there are!

So screw the natives, right?

There was a lot of good that has come out of this country. However we should never forget that two of the main building blocks of America were slavery and genocide. It's a very, very ugly thing. Folk still don't want to admit it, or just sweep it under the rug as a fact of history and move on.

NEVER.

It's in understanding that the invasion and raping of people is wrong that we learn how to repent of our past and actually make an attempt to see all people as equals.

It's never good to take the sins of one's ancestors and ever try to justify them.
21 months ago: Yes Huey, screw the natives, that's what I said right? Not hardly. All counquered peoples lose something in the end, how much they lose depends on the conqueror, sometimes they slaughter them all, sometimes they only slaughter the men and sometimes they just take over and install their own form of government.

No we do not need to remember it that way. Salvery was not invented by Americans, nor was genocide. We should remember that it was a way of life for a time but that we changed it and do not support it any longer in the form that it was (as slavery of a race of people) and what genocide was carried out was not a way of life but a failure of our government to prevent it.

If people would stop treating slavery in America as something the current population condones, race relations would move forward 150 years. It's the constant reminding that our, that is OUR as in yours and mine, ancestors participated in the slave trade and had or put into slavery, slaves that prevents blacks and whites from moving forward and treating each other as equals.

This doesn't mean I support taking that period of history out of the history books, it just means that is should be dropped from the list of grievences and more focus placed on the actual problems of our society.

As you said, the sins of our ancestors are not ours to justify, nor are they ours to be punished for.

21 months ago: To Six -

"It's the constant reminding that our, that is OUR as in yours and mine, ancestors participated in the slave trade..."

"As you said, the sins of our ancestors are not ours to justify, nor are they ours to be punished for."

I agree 100%.

However too many instead of acknowledeging the wrong still seek to justify It. And there are plenty who are unrepentant with regarded to what happened even with regard to at least having remorse for the dark deeds many of our ancestors participated in. "Foreget it and move" heals nothing.

It is not necessary for eagles to be crows.

21 months ago: The American natives did it to each other, the indigenous people of Mexico did it, the Spanish, French, and English did it. At some point, we are all going to have to defend our "homeland" from those who wish to take it by force.

Which states, or parts of states, including southern California, are we going to surrender to Mexico?

Al, you could spearhead a movement to relinquish US ownership of all lands taken in the Mexican American war. That would make all the libs in San Francisco worship you as their hero.

21 months ago: I thought that thought was funny...even if it is not accepted by those that think they are indigenous...

Mexico is nothing more than the slum of Spain. The Mexican people don't even know their own history or culture. When was Mexico declared a country? It wasn't while they kept borrowning money from Spain or France...which by the way they never paid back... leading to Cinco de Mayo....

Cinco de Mayo is not a National Mexican holiday of Independence.

It is a day of default on debt.

Mexico's Independence day is in September.

Oh yeah, the year was 1821...

Indigenous people my left...

21 months ago: When I was referring to indigenous people of Mexico, I didn't mean Mexicans. I was talking about Acatec, Oaxaca, Yucatec, and Aztec. The Spanish took Mexico most insidiously, by marrying the natives and breeding their native culture out of existence.
21 months ago: I knew what you ment. That was my pun on the education and health care system in Mexico. Not to mention the civil control of the 'La Raza'.....

21 months ago: It's funny how Cypress and Out of the Box play loose with historical events to discredit the rights, plights and rightful demands of native peoples and their decedents.

On one level I get what you guys are saying. It is the same thing Six said and that Bill Clinton said as well. "We can't undo the past, so move on!" OOTB's little animated map displayed how difficult it would be to reimburse everybody the time money and investments in this great American exploitation of peoples lands and resources. I get it and I agree!

The thing is that, nobody who is complaining is demanding anything as extreme as what you guys sarcastically suggest. The only exception would be Native Americans who currently have land claim lawsuits pending.

What Huey responded to Six and I think Six would most likely agree is that human right issues today while having deep roots in our collective past, do now far exceed the color lines of the old south, north debate of black and white issues. As Cypress pointed out quite facetiously the Mexican peoples making "native" claims to American lands in order to bolster their illegal immigration claims that circumvent American laws are at best half breed Spaniards.

It is much like American southern whites or blacks who claim Cherokee bloodline. The issue is mute because while it may be true, their cultural ties to what they claim as theirs just isn't there anymore. More substantial in this whole debate is Six's argument about conquered people. Such conquests have never ever been given justice after the fact. What happens to a people or culture after conquering a people as an act of war remains the decision of the victor.

America if anything stands on a higher moral plain than previous conquering nations because we've not only allowed through legally won fights the right to natives, former slaves, etc but we've also mixed and co mingled with them. As Huey said it is our history (meaning all Americans) and it is our shameful roots. Roots that left festering wounds that we as a nation must heal because it has infected generations of Americans who don't know their right from their left nor do they know their south from their north.
21 months ago: I think your missing the point you laid out so well...

...discredit the rights, plights and rightful demands of native peoples and their decedents...

Mexicans are not a native people. Not in Mexico, not in the U.S. not in central America...

Which leads to a larger question...

Who is the native people in Central America and South America?

Where did they go? It wasn't those evil white men that did them in.

21 months ago: Apparently you are missing the point as well. What we have today is a global crisis that is escalating with each passing year. Like it or not its roots are fixed deeply within the colonial period, where Europe did a mad dash grab of all the earths land masses, when they left nothing unscathed! They colonized, plunderered, pillaged, raped, brainwashed, converted, annihilated, all the native peoples and lands they could get their hands on. What was left is us (You, me & everyone else) You seem to think that the solution is to pipe down and shut up. That has not been working C. People are getting restless. As the resources (arable land, drinkable water) diminish due directly to climate change and bad foreign policy then the fighting and protesting will continue to escalate. Europeans and then Americans set a bad example. We told the world that they can have the American dream at the expense of someone else and now everyone wants in on it. Our way of life is just not sustainable C. Policies need to change!
21 months ago: Things are precisely as they have always been...not one thing has changed.
Those that can, by force, take and hold something, will. Those that attempt this and are met by a greater force, lose.
That's all we are seeing now...all the so called "claims" this land was mine, this place was where we lived...are an attempt to justify a grab for something. An incitement to rally troops for an attempt at taking something. Time will show if it is successful.
Not one of them ever lived here. Far as I know they'd have to be about 170 years old at least. Nor did any of my "white" forbears take it from them.
That was all done at a time when, as Six said, things were done a bit more overtly. By everyone. The native Americans, the Europeans, the South American Indians, the Africans.
All attempts to color the white Europeans as a blight is just a transparent joke and attempt to establish some other racial faction as superior, either in morality or temperament...cause they know they sure can't compete with raw productivity of goods and creativity. Maybe we should turn all the world over to Tibetan monks?
Yeah, maybe smoking a "peace pipe" is a wonderfully rich metaphor to many an aging hippy, when folks don't like to talk about war parties and such.
I know that every culture and race except the white Europeans sat congenially every evening around a fire, passing a feather around, listening to the wisdom of the tribal elders, while they all sang Kumbaya.
While white Europeans schemed to eat their babies.
The whole of the world lies under the power of the evil one...

21 months ago: Civilizations begin long ago, since those beginnings people have found many methods to prove the civilization across the pathway (or stream, river, sea, ocean, mountain range, etc.) is different, undesireably different. His eyes are a different color, his hair too long, he shaves too often (or not often enough), maybe he prays more fervently. His women have more freedom (or less), he rides horses better (or not at all).

When do we laugh to realize these differences are not terribly significant?

Technology has shows us that almost everyone likes to have good clean water, heat and lights and even air conditioning. Everyone likes to be able to talk on telephones and likes reliable, safe transportation. Sure we are different, but our similar urges for a comfortable life can move us forward.
