Native American Pride

We are an Indian tribe and it should be about Native Americans first.I, in no way, want to promote racism against anyone but the non-Indians have taken care of the non-Indians from the beginning. The Indian had to fight to get back a very small portion of what was theirs/ours in the first place. We have been subject to the agenda of the non-Indian ever since. We should be looking out for us....period. If the employment gap cannot be filled by Indians then, obviously, we must step outside the circle to fill it or provide our unemployed with the necessary skills.When some say that we are not deserving of what the government was forced to give back, I remind myself that it wasn't the Indians that landed here and then proceeded to do whatever it took to claim what wasn't ours to claim. We didn't bring with us, against their will, other humans that were treated like the lowest of God's creatures because they were not white skinned. We did not beat them and force them to work for free. That is where "Native Pride" comes in. We fought only for what was ours to begin with and we are still fighting. We are not being given any extras by the US govt...it was ours to begin with.Trouble is, we have some groups among us that are battling to take it away from the rest of us. Lifetimes ago we shared with each other but now some of our own want it all. Why should we allow it to happen? What a disgrace that we should have to fight our own to take back what belongs to all of us.

Refer to the posting below this one to understand what I am referring to.

This is the best I have ever read. I am so irritated that small minority groups can tell the majority what we can do and what we cannot. I am not going to say "Happy Holidays"...I am going to say "Merry Christmas and God Bless You". If Jesus is the Reason for the Season then why can't we say so? If not for the birth of Christ, there would be no Christmas and therefore, no "holiday". Brings it all back to "Merry Christmas". I think we should all email, write or call or state representatives, congress, senate, etc...and all of our community leaders to tell them how we feel. I will not purchase one single thing from any organization that tells employees not to say "Merry Christmas".
In God We Trust and May God Bless all of You and here is Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas.

Subject: THE LAW IS THE LAW!

THE LAW IS THE LAW

So if the US government determines that it is against the Law for the words "under God" to be on our money, then, So be it.

And if that same government decides that the "Ten Commandments"
Are not to be used in or on a Government installation, then,

So be it.

I say," so be it," because I would like to be a Law abiding US citizen.

I say,"so be it," because I would like to think that
Smarter people than I are in positions to make good decisions.
I would like to think that those people have the
American public's best interests at heart.

BUT, YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE I'D LIKE?

Since we can't pray to God, can't Trust in God and cannot post His Commandments in Government buildings , I don't believe the Government and its Employees should participate in the Easter and Christmas Celebrations which honor the God

That our government is eliminating from many facets of American life.

I'd like my mail delivered on Christmas, Good Friday, Thanksgiving & Easter. After all, it's just another day.

I'd like the" US Supreme Court to be in session on Christmas, Good Friday, Thanksgiving &Easter as Well as Sundays." After all, it's just another day.

I'd like the Senate and the House of Representatives
To not have to worry about getting home for the "Christmas Break." After all it's just another day.

I'm thinking that a lot of my taxpayer dollars could be saved, if all government offices &services would
work on Christmas, Good Friday &Easter.

It shouldn't cost any overtime since those would be just like any other
Day of the week to a government that is trying to be "politically correct."

In fact....

I think that our government should work on Sundays (initially set aside for worshipping God...) because, after all, our government says that it should be just another day....

What do you all think????

If this idea gets to enough people, maybe our elected
Officials will stop giving in to the "minority opinions"
And begin, once again, to represent the "majority"
Of ALL of the American people.
SO BE IT..........


Please Dear Lord,
Give us the help needed to keep you in our country!
'Amen' and 'Amen'
Touch�!

These are definitely things I never thought about but
from now on, I will be sure to question those in
Government who support these changes.

At the top, it says " I hope this makes its way around

The USA several times over!!!!!"

Let's see that it does.

Our right to make changes through referendum is the one voice we have left....use it.
