Exactly, Indians fought to keep our great nation from ever being. And they lost, to the dustbin their “culture” goes. We need to tear down any monuments to these savages

Feathered Indians came from Asia they aren't "native".

And corn grew naturally, so they don't really get credit for "inventing" it. It also was a very basic form of corn that was nothing like the corn today.
Have to give them credit for being good farmers. They didn't invent plants, they propagated and developed them from wild plants into more usable forms. Corn, potatoes, squash are just some examples, there are many more.

Do those who want Santorum fired? If so, how many have said something similar to what I said about Confederates?
I, personally, have no use for confederate images/memorials/etc. I’m a born and raised southerner, I am not embarrassed by my heritage, nor do I take pride in it. I see no need for new monuments to it, nor expenditure of money removing them.

Seems like a fair and just application of a standard. That's not something we see too much these days. Good on you.

What little there was can’t be kept alive for the most part because if you do, you run the risk of being cancelled because offense found somewhere in it as well. See the Redskins, et al.

Arguably there is a lot of drinking. So there's that.
They did contribute more than just drinking, but you’re not too far off the reservation.

For what it’s worth, the peace pipe is still used today for social bonding.
