  1. all the fire control in the world with a buffalo bladder of water . the natives have become the Baron Munchhausen’s of the world

    supreme bullsh1t

  3. next thing Ill find out that Indian village scene in RoseMarie was faked. and that indians have developed consonants for their songs.

  4. Disney also made crickets talk … which describes the full extent of their grasp of nature, native peoples, and the universe.

    My liberal teachers have no such excuse. They’re simply self-hating propagandists.

  6. The Red River valley was nearly bereft of trees thanks to frequent prairie fires until the advent of European settlement and the cultivation of the land. Even if the native inhabitants did not start them, they lacked the means to control such fires and had to put up with a treeless landscape as a result, consigned to using dried buffalo crap as a fuel for cooking fires.

  7. Let’s be fair though: the idiocy of the US military hiring bison hunters to wipe out the indigenous food supply is a perfect example of scoring on your own goal.

  8. Pocahontas looks pretty mature for a 12 year old in that Disney clip. But we know Disney likes them young, and they grow up fast.

  9. In The Man-Eating Myth, W. Arens has challenged the widely held belief that the Iroquois practiced ritual cannibalism in the 17th century. Arens argues that “the historical record” does not support a case for Iroquois anthropophagy. That record (including the Jesuit Relations which Arens cites) in fact provides ample evidence to refute Arens’s hypothesis.

    1. Except it’s not really a “widely held belief” since according to our betters, there was no war, no slavery, and everything was perfect until the white man showed up.

      1. Native American tribes are the only people I have read of who routinely tortured captives by suspending them (alive) upside down over fires. Surely some of those captives were praying to be waterboarded.

  10. Natives not so kind to each other either. Slavery, torture for pleasure, part of many (most?) tribal cultures before Europeans put a stop to it.

  12. I still remember being taught in history class that Columbus used forest fire smoke drifting over the Atlantic as proof that something was over there to be discovered when he talked the Spanish crown into funding his expedition.

  16. Funny how the romantic drivel about the pre-Columban Shangri-la was first revealed by white guys like Archie Belaney and Walt Disney.

  17. No axe to grind.. When we showed up for the 74th time.. The local squatters were as interested in us as we were in them.. Its kind of like free money.. If you don’t take it somebody else will..

    The idea that they were all friends is absurd.. Its even impossible to pigeon hole what a native is.. Some were gypsies and some were farmers.. Just like us..

    If it wasn’t for clog dancing we wouldn’t have anything in common at all..

  20. Having had to endure indians during my childhood, career and retirement throughout, in no particular order, Alberta, Ontario, Quebec, Labrador, NWT and Yukon, I can attest that most of them are stupid. I could use much more descriptive words but alas, I fear the filter may get me or more likely, there is a character limit on these posts.

    I am accused of being a racist and making stuff up when I relate my 60 years of experiences with these people. The leftist liberal commies cannot fathom that a people who had absolutely no knowledge of the wheel could not have had a written language because how are they spelling all these road and neighbourhood changes into indian words that nobody can pronounce. At the end of the day, the white man and his taxes were the best thing to ever happen to the indians.

    Now, I live in a pretty much white enclave in rural area and no longer have to deal with their stupidity as they’re a long way from me.

  21. Has anyone ever stopped to ask why vast expanses of North America was open grassland in the 1800s?

    Oddly enough, the same thing was detailed by several early explorers in Australia.

    FIRE. The practice known as “Fire-stick Hunting” was practiced for CENTURIES in both regions.

    Grasslands supported “game species”, in abundance, deep forests did not. And it was a carefully plotted process. The idea being to let a burned patch lie “fallow for several years before the “tribe’ returned a few years later, as part of their “migrations”.

    Each burn would do two additional things: Kill off any tree saplings that may have sprung up from seeds dropped by birds and leave a layer of ash to be added to the soil.

    Australia’s contribution to the “interesting plants” category, is the eucalyptus family.. They are “fire resistant” up to a point, and yet, most species require the heat of a fast-moving, “ground fire” to “crack their seed pods.

    The other entertaining thing about eucalyptus trees is that, if able to form forests, they out-compete a LOT of other tree species by dropping a steady rain of leaf and bark litter that chemically alters the soil to the point other species cannot grow. . Also, a “crown fire” in a eucalyptus forest is a fearsome sight. Oil-laden canopies burn with a ferocity, to the point that such fires create their own “weather”, with in rushing fresh air forming winds of some speed, which further blow hot cinders into previously untouched areas. Slightly aware Californians may have noticed this phenomenon, or not.

    Have a look at the behaviour and “mechanics of the big fires in Pine forests, be they “natural” or “plantation” variety.

    Final point: Notice how, after one of these events, there is rain. This tends to do more “damage”, washing away dead / burned trees and HUGE amounts of heat-damaged soil. A bit like a Lahar that follows many volcanic eruptions. Previously “pristine” streams turned into a jumbled mess in minutes.
