Asian-Pacific American Heritage Month 2014

Chairman's Corner - Asian-Pacific American Heritage Month

 

[Vikrant]

Good read!

Not that I have anything at all against ethnic people celebrating their heritage but I'm just curious what month "white heritage" is celebrated. I guess we do have St. Patrick's day but that's really a Catholic holiday. Then there's President's day but only Obama is celebrated. There's Thanksgiving but that's sort of shared by the Pilgrims and the American Indians. Plus the fact that all the days I mentioned are -- days -- not an entire month.

Oh well ... congrats on Asian heritage month. Asians are good folks who have contributed much to the world.

There is something going on for Italian Americans, German Americans, Portuguese Americans, British Americans, Franco Americans, Dutch Americans, etc. every month of the year. Don't worry about it. It's covered.

You get holidays for Christmas and Easter; what the fuck more do you want?

I'm Scottish. Anything for me? A full month?

Yeah but I want a FULL MONTH for just being white. Actually, it doesn't really matter to me. It's all part of the design to further divide America and to put whitey in his place. I ain't no dope. No longer are we simply Americans who celebrate being Americans.

You did it to the native American, stop moaning.
King Cnut, famously misrepresented, tried to stop the tide.
You're doing exactly the same thing; try to stop being a silly Cnut.

I did what to whom? You're blaming me for something? If we're going to use that logic then Romans owe Christians for burning them at the stake. See how silly that sounds?

If you knew anything, the Romans paid that debt off when they converted to Christianity and spread that religion throughout their empire.
It's Islam's turn - convert early and earn your seat at Allah's side.

Then the early Americans paid off their dead when they allowed gambling casinos on reservations.

When I earn my seat at Allah's side can I wear a bunch of explosives?

Native Americans kidnapped, tortured, raped, murdered and scalped White women and children in Texas etc.
Attacked ranches and slaughtered the innocent farm folk.

Oh. Darn. I'm certain I watched the news every day in April but must have missed that segment.

Innocent - they were illegal immigrants, trespassing on the Indian's land.

I think many in the American right wing have something to say about Mexicans who wander over the border without documents.

Not illegal immigrants! There were no laws on the books regulating immigration nor any formal announcement by the Indian press or delegation that immigration should be curbed. No border police or signs hindering any sort of immigration.

Big deal - there were no signs saying you couldn't rape and murder the indians - so you did it anyway.
