Actually if you do carbon dating back thousands of year it says that the so called "Native americans' are actually from china

unholyknight (10/20/2011) [-] I'm native american, I grew up near the pine ridge reservation. I will speak on a large portion of my people, we don't need the whole of the US back but we would like some more land for our reservations. The thing we need is economic relief. What the US is dealing with now is what people on reservations have been dealing with for decades. Now take this in to consideration, I am also an American citizen and I serve in the US army. So in no way are we leaching off the US nor are we lazy, we're struggling.

otakusama (10/20/2011) [-] Funny enough, the defining things of American culture were brought to them by immigrants. Apple pie was a German thing.

neutralgray (10/20/2011) [-] As for all the Indian and white people taking their land stuff...
If you live in the U.S.: You like your home right? Do you have a house to live in? Well, that's lovely.
Oh, but it was taken from Indians and that bothers you? Yes, it is wrong that we did that but do you really think we're going to give ALL of it back when we've established a country for centuries? How about this, if it bothers you so much lead by example: Go find a person of Indian descent and give back the land you own that's "rightfully" theirs. That's right. Lead by example. Go give your house, land, and all property up.
You'll be a better (albeit more miserable) person for it.

Dizzay (10/20/2011) [-] Saying that white Americans owe native Americans something is like saying that white people owe black people something because of slavery.
Yes in the past, white men took over the native americans land.
However, none of those people are alive today.
Basically, if a person thinks I owe them something because my ancestor did something to their ancestor, then they are being racist.
Saying that "america's true owners are the native americans" is bullshit. Their ancestors owned it. Then they died. Modern day "native" americans are born in the same generation as you. Either they can be part of modern society and own the land collectivley, or complain that they want it for themselves.

Dizzay (10/20/2011) [-] I didnt say no indians live anymore, I said that the original indians, meaning the ones who were alive hundreds of years ago, are not alive anymore. I seriously doubt you were alive during the colonization of america. Please read my comment before responding next time.

I am not American and have no idea of American history but how would you feel if the land you owned or lived on was taken from you. Then you were killed, raped, converted, sold.. The land that is today a very powerful country once belonged to other people who experienced a lot of hardship. Should it be given back I am not to say but decendants of them do deserve respect. In my opinion.
#140 to #136 -
Dizzay (10/20/2011) [-] I am not american either. My point is that I did not kill, rape, convert or sell anyone, and no native american alive today was killed, raped, converted or sold. I dont see how my race owes their race just because dead people from my race did horrible things to dead people to their race. They do deserve respect, but not because of mine and their race.

awesomothree (10/20/2011) [-] Are you kidding me? You have an extremely distorted view of what racism actually is:
1.The belief that all members of each race possess characteristics or abilities specific to that race, esp. so as to distinguish it as...
2. Prejudice or discrimination directed against someone of a different race based on such a belief.
You realise that what you're saying is that it would be wrong for you to inherit your parents house when they died .. And to be honest saying that you don't owe them anything is a fair comment, however there is something called common courtesy and respect, it might get you places in life ..

Dizzay (10/20/2011) [-] Im not saying it would be wrong for me to inherit their house. Im saying that it would be wrong of someone to kill me because my great great great great grandfather killed his great great great great grandfather.
And if you're discriminating against an entire race for unjustified reasons that is racism
also, "The belief that all members of each race possess characteristics or abilities specific to that race" is not racist. Different races are different, both physically and psychologically, acknowledging that fact isn't racism.

awesomothree (10/20/2011) [-] Of course that would be wrong ! haha but you're taking an extreme here, the comic is expressing the irony of the situation and for whatever reason it's causing you to bring up random information which I personally disagree with. However, I agree with you on that obviously the native americans don't own america anymore, what i disagree with is that you're getting upset that you have to show a race of people respect .. Is it really that hard?
I'm also pretty sure that there isn't any discrimination going on here, there isn't anyone expecting that you owe them anything haha, but showing ancestors/natives respect is simply a GOOD thing to do. GOOD MORALS
Last point is that I posted an official definition, so you can argue with that all you want however it will be wrong ;)

Dizzay (10/20/2011) [-] Im not getting upset, I have never actually met a native american in my life. I am happy to respect anyone that deserves my respect. And I am not disputing the definition, I am simply stating the fact that different races of people are biologically different from one another. I realise now that that is not what the definition was talking about.
#147 to #145 -
awesomothree (10/20/2011) [-] Of course different races are biologically different otherwise they wouldn't be different races haha..
Well then I see this banter has come to a close, whatever unintentional mistakes of communication can now be forgotten, let's enjoy a bacon sandwich

Sorry to just join in but:
"The belief that all members of each race possess characteristics or abilities specific to that race"
I think that is basically summarising racial stereotyping. For example, saying all mexicans are lazy, all black people steal, etc. Which is racism.

AlexanderMoore **User deleted account** (10/20/2011) [-] Of course, there were original inhabitants to pretty much every country existing today that were all exterminated. It just proves that, in the end, nobody gives a fuck about where you live and grew up, your land might be taken away from you at any moment. No part of the Earth actually belongs to anyone, groups of human beings just take parts and call it their own 'because we said so' and usually eventually get their asses kicked out and a new group takes over. That's life, it sucks. You're part of the universe, not part of a country.
