157. Still laughing...

Tue Feb 4, 2014, 12:46 PM

Feb 2014

I'm not kidding, I'm STILL reading the comments there and laughing at them! I know it's "elitist" and "mean" to laugh at ignorance, but hey, if you have internet (and if you are posting on the Coke FB page, you have internet!) and continue to be that ignorant - you are making a CHOICE to not understand the world, or know about things beyond your front door. That, I feel absolutely okay with laughing at. I also really love the "You are racist for calling us racists!"... oh, and, "Why are we all talking in English on here then if it's not our language?". I'm telling you, I cannot wait until this part of our society no longer exists - it HAS to go away at some point, right? I mean, what percentage of the population do they represent now? Less than a quarter, right? Or, is that just those too stupid to be quiet?

No such thing DeShawn Feb 2014 #33

If you have lived in the Americas for 15,000 years, you are a Native. Coyotl Feb 2014 #34

Why 15,000 DeShawn Feb 2014 #40

That's right DeShawn Feb 2014 #81

Science is not a political euphemism. We better get you enrolled soon. Coyotl Feb 2014 #88

It's politics, not science DeShawn Feb 2014 #91

And centuries of racist pseudo-science had nothing to do with that? nomorenomore08 Feb 2014 #94

O.K., that settles it, you have never even read a book on the subject, or you would know better. Coyotl Feb 2014 #118

Then by that definition, there are no "natives" anywhere, except maybe parts of Africa. nomorenomore08 Feb 2014 #93

so which term do you prefer? first nation, or indigenous? niyad Feb 2014 #113

I think they featured a pueblo dialect cinnabonbon Feb 2014 #58

That cool. It makes the redneck reaction that much more insulting though! Coyotl Feb 2014 #73

Oh, we definitely agree on that. nt cinnabonbon Feb 2014 #83
