This posting is all over Facebook!
No
self-respecting Native American should leave this alone.
If
you have ever been to Pine ridge you know about the two disgusting European
drunk bars just off the Reservation and what they are doing to our brothers and
sisters just for money.
You
must not walk away from this posting!
This
government is not willing to stop these four murdering greedy Whites from
destroying so many families or at the very least, allow the natives their right
to opening their own bars!
That Nation to Nation thing again?
Before
my answer to this would be my question.
Do
you know about our missing enzyme (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyruvate_carboxylase)
and how this effects us with chemicals?
The
drink is to us a chemical.
We,
the natives to this country did not need, so did not have this protection,
until first contact.
As
the Europeans go, the Pilgrims did not party or drink that is just one of the
reasons they left Europe!
The
Indians? One must assume this photo is speaking about India also do not drink
or party as the picture displays.
Native
Americans did not know what drink was until way after the Pilgrims arrival to
our shores.
When
we, the Native Americans do take of the drink, one drink would make us drunk,
again this is because of that missing enzyme, not because we are drunks!
Only
that foolish wannabe cowboy and wannabe native white person on display in this
photo drink in a foolish drunken manner!
AND
If
you don't mind I like my butt and will never take it off?
Is Hunting really a Sport
My answer to a kind statement from one of my good Friends.
I do thank-you for your support!
Definition of sport?
Competitive physical activity: an individual or group competitive activity
involving physical exertion or skill, governed by rules!
The skill would be sitting on the roof of your truck in the road ( which
is against the law by the way) with a very expensive rifle with a scope shooting
a deer being chased by your hungry dog, and the rule would be?
OR
Somebody who plays fairly: somebody noted for abiding by the rules in a
game or for generally honorable behavior ?
So, then one would guess that it is only a sport if we can also arm the
animals with high powered rifles w/scopes, feed and retire the poor hungry dogs
and allow the animals to sit on a truck roof and shoot back at you?
As a Traditional Native American loving ALL of Creators creations (this
must include you the hunter) one must concede that before Super Store's one
needed to hunt (with rules) to feed and clothe your family however, it now cost
sometimes 3 times as much just to satisfy ones thirst for killing not feeding
or clothing!
I was thinking that after our hunters kill off every Endangered species in
the world we could persuade them into
hunting those bad pet owners, the ones that constantly miss treat their pets.
Alas, unfortunately the hunters and the bad pet owners are usually one and
the same!
Breanna and I enjoy driving to the Post office a few times a week, it is only
1/2 mile away however, she loves to ride and I need to get away now and again.
I removed our mail box because people are always pulling up to check it
out or driving past shooting at it.
Every once in a while we find a hunters dog stuck inside the building.
Guess they follow someone in out of the cold/heat and will not come out.
They have this medal collar locked far too tight around their neck and
every rib on their body showing a lack of food, you see these hunters starve
the dogs half to death so that they will chase Bambi out of the forest for an
easier shot!
SPORT THAT?
I am one of the people that cuts off the collar, feeds the dog and sets
them free!

When should a Mascot never be a Mascot?
I was warned
that if I were a smart person I would leave this question alone.
Of course I am
not a very smart person and have never left a question alone.
I also realize
that this is a never ending losing battle.
The question
came from a long time friend with an honest heart and question.
My friends
(again no names) football team had a bad year and was complementing me on my
team, the Florida State football team.
As an old
football player I enjoy watching most football games.
As a
traditional native American teacher I just cannot get over some team MASCOT'S!
I have been to
this school's gathering a number of times and follow the team players.
I know that
they are good kind people (maybe not so kind to me after this posting).
However,
people like their mascot are a big reason why hundreds of thousands of natives
around the world do not even know that they are native and thousands of others
can also never feel their ancestors speaking to them, because we allow some
jokers in many of our schools to fall into our governments traps of making us
all look like fools!
Yes, it is
true that this guys grandfather (Assinyeola) an English, Scotsmen with Creek ancestry was, for a time, a hero to the
Seminole people of Florida (the intruders to Florida by the way) and every time
his grandson goes out and makes a fool out of himself and the ancestors, I'm
betting that he is turning over in his grave.
I have been
out on the powwow trail for ten years now while in the area with a descendent
to the royal family of the Creek nation.
He and I have
smoke the pipe at many sacred fires, he is extremely upset to say the least!
John William, Billy Osceola, Powell's grandson dresses up as
any Indian except the Seminole people and races a horse around an arena as if
in a circus, because for those few minutes it is one at every home game!
Alas the worse
is yet to come.
I am a proud
Gator fan that is now ashamed of the school fans because, it would seem that,
because there team lost one game to a good Georgia team the "school
fans" turned their backs on the team and did not support them in the play
offs?
Good God, the
team has a new coast with a great game plan give them a brake will you?
They beat
Florida State didn’t they?
They also beat
Mr. Johnny Football!

Why do Native Americans pray to the creator?
Welcome
to the visitor from Independence Missouri
To one of my posting looking for
Pictures of Native Americans Praying to
Creator
and
Why do Native Americans pray to the
creator?
Thank you for your question.
We pray for many reasons just as most non
natives do however, what I believe to be sort of a difference would be that our
prayers are always in the form of talking, communication, or discussions as you
might while talking to your Grandfather?
All of the time knowing that Creator
created, is always listening and loves all creation.
Everyone of our ceremonies, powwows,
gatherings and even our Grand Entry are a prayer.
I believe that if you ask any person of
the Jewish faith you will receive about the say answer?
If you are praying to receive something
it would be wise to make sure that it is something Creator has already
promised?
If one is asking a question, have
patience, you will get your answer in Creators time.
