I said it was racist to use a pejorative term for Native Americans but not an equally pejorative term for Euro-Americans.<br /><br />As for your other comments, I've addressed them all before.<br /><br />Who came to America first:<br /><br /><a href="http://newspaperrock.bluecorncomics.com/2010/07/were-indians-colonists-too.html" rel="nofollow">Were Indians "colonists" too?</a><br /><a href="http://newspaperrock.bluecorncomics.com/2008/07/solutrean-hypothesis.html" rel="nofollow">The Solutrean hypothesis</a><br /><a href="http://www.bluecorncomics.com/kennwick.htm" rel="nofollow">Kennewick Man, Captain Picard, and political correctness</a><br /><br />Whether Indians were as warlike as Europeans:<br /><br /><a href="http://newspaperrock.bluecorncomics.com/2009/08/indians-in-war-before-civilization.htm" rel="nofollow">Indians in <i>War Before Civilization</i></a><br /><a href="http://newspaperrock.bluecorncomics.com/2009/02/something-you-never-hear-about-indians.html" rel="nofollow">"Something you never hear" about Indians?</a><br /><a href="http://www.bluecorncomics.com/warlike.htm" rel="nofollow">Warlike Indians</a><br /><br />And the Anasazi's alleged cannibalism:<br /><br /><a href="http://newspaperrock.bluecorncomics.com/2008/10/anasazi-cannibal-woman-for-sale.html" rel="nofollow"><i>Anasazi Cannibal Woman</i> for sale</a><br /><br />In short, tell me something I don't know.

(Twice, with truly zero provocation, on the Boston subway, the "T," I was called "cracker.") <br /><br />It must hurt when we Native Americans of European heritage play the name game right back at you. "Beringian," however, is factually accurate, unlike the bigoted epithets your kind spews. The Asiatic invaders who genocided the Solutreans did indeed come across the Beringian land bridge....from ASIA. <br /><br />So, yeah, they WERE immigrants, very VIOLENT racist immigrants who holocausted whites.<br /><br />And guess what? The Anasazi truth, someday soon, will REALLY ruin your day....John de Nugenthttp://www.johndenugent.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29769707.post-4481739501631953852010-12-13T16:31:08.807-08:002010-12-13T16:31:08.807-08:00Anon: You forgot Nyarathotep and Azathoth.
