Perhaps, but it is their fault they sold manhattan for a box of beads or $20 or whatever the hell it was. It was the American equivalent of mujahadin with flintlock rifles fighting soviet tanks. Fortunately for us the Indians really sucked with their sticks and the invention of the gatling gun made short work of the breeding stock.


It was $24 dollars in cloth and buttons.

I really think we could have gotten it for a bottle of Firewater and been done with it.

Be realistic. It was most likely went down like "Either take these damn buttons and get the f[Aliceblue][/Aliceblue]uck out of here, or we will keep the buttons and hand you your ***."

No, silly. It was like this...

"Oh, Noble Savage, takest thou these thy bountiful gifts as token of our friendship and pledge of our unyielding support for you and your descendants. Shouldst thou spurn us in this our gesture of good will, we shall taketh up the mighty sword of God...

What? Yes, we have only one. Why? Nevermind.

...Taketh up the mighty sword of God and smite you from this land."

Good thing all those Mexicans are Catholic, then. They get their own Mighty Sword of God!

That's how it would have gone down today except it would been in the name of Democracy and a lot of talk about Casinos and tax-free cigarettes.

No, protestants and puritans have Mighty Swords of God. Catholics have the Staff of Life.

And for the sake of inclusiveness:
Jews have the Silver Dollar of Doom
Muslims have the Turban of Jihad
Buddhists have the super cool Gas Tank of Holy Flame

Pffttt... Catholics are much more aggressive than pus[Aqua][/Aqua]sy Protestants. Crusades, Inquisitions... what do the Puritans have? A dozen broads called witches and thrown into a pool?

Or hung or burned or whatever they did.

And the 3000 mile Operation F'uck the Red Man that wiped clean the way for a nation founded and run on the principles of good, clean God fearing living and telling Catholics to get f'ucked. :)

As far as the OP, there are all kind of Latinos, and not all feel the same pull to their Mother Country. For some illegal children or children born by illegals in this country, the United States is all they have ever known, and the thought that they may be deported for something they had no control over is a sobering one. However, because of these same circumstances, they have grown up in a home where Spanish was and continues to be their primary language.

I imagine that the same delight I get from a translation of "O Holy Night" come Christmas (one of my favorite carols in English) is the same warm fuzzy they would get from a cross-cultural version of their anthem that reflects the same cultural collision they have lived with and tried to reconcile all their life.

Meh. The Catholic Spainards had already done the same across all of South and Central America.

Anything you can do, I can do better! I can do anything better than you!

WTF is with that yellow text? Strike that sh[/Aqua]it, it looks like someone pissed in my thread.

Of course, my thread has turned into a contest of which Christian denomination is the bigger bunch of as[Aqua]
sholes, but still. It deserves respect.

Yeah, and turned it in to a real powerhouse.

Besides, there may not be as many, but everything south of the US/Mexico border is riddled with indiginous people interbreeding with Spaniards. We stuck ours in the middle of the desert like smart people.

And, just to be pedantic, Zyklon B was a cyanide based insecticide. Mustard gasses are sulfur based (hence the yellow).

People that colonized the US were working-class folk fleeing religous persecution or poverty. The Spaniards that came to South America were overwhelmingly of the monied gentry, and they sure as hell couldn't ***** a maid or send her for drinks if they stuck her in the desert. Our 'distribution' was more like that of blacks in the U.S., except we were already there and didn't need to be shipped over.
