Ok so we're suposed to be kicking back, eatin' turkey, drinkin' wine and giving thanks for all we "have". As if we didn't rudly TAKE what we have...
Oklahoma.
OKLA means
red.
Homa means
man.

Although Native Americans have generally accepted the nomanclature of "Indian" they got the name from an idiot who thought he'd sailed to INDIA. He was mistaken.

So as we sit down with our family and loved ones go ahead and enjoy all you
have. I will be doing the same. There is nothing in this world more improtant than family. No greater currency than joy and laughter with the ones you love.
I would hope a couple days later you will stop and think about something, family extends to the family of mankind. And that we all owe our Native American brothers and sisters far more than we will ever begin to repay them.
So I, for one, do not celebrate "Columbus Day", and I give my Thanks on Thanksgiving NOT to what we HAVE, but to having great brothers in the Okla-Homans, and all of the inhabitants of the every Tribal Nation accross the entire US.
On behalf of all the cruelty, torture, extortion, and terrorism that have been brought upon these good people I hope you accept my sincere appology.
Our song "Church And State" derived a few words in the lyrics from this sad chapter in history. Never let it the injustice be forgotton.
