Oklahoma was occupied by Comanche, Osage, and others when the white folks came to North America. As the population of Euro-honkies increased, they decided to relocate peoples native to eastern areas to Oklahoma. White folk didn’t want it in the early 19th century, and thought Okie would be a good place in which to funnel native peoples who owned/occupied lands they did want. Then, at the end of the 19th century, there was enough pressure from incoming white folks that those in power thought it would be a good idea to give them land Oklahoma. Some lands were easy to give away to white settlers. Others had to be gotten through trickery and murder. It’s not the proudest bit of US history, but it is ours. Stole it once. Stole it twice. Land Thieves.

Wtf

Native Americans were relocated from many states and territories. Why don’t you call Tennessee land thieves?

Every damn thing around here is named after native Americans…..including the city name.

 

[theFallGuy]

Let's start a debate about Native Americans here

 

[NorCalVol67]

Let’s go!

Not sure what that has to do with my question.

 

[theFallGuy]

Let’s go!

I'm actually reading a book about the Comanche right now ironically. Really fascinating

 

[Orangeslice13]

Not sure what that has to do with my question.

Other than supporting your premise that Tennessee is stolen land…..absolutely nothing

 

[Orangeslice13]

Dumbass

 

[NorCalVol67]

Anyway, just joking around, don’t want no PF bs.

 

[NorCalVol67]

Well, it is all stolen land.

 

[Orangeslice13]

Anyway, just joking around, don’t want no PF bs.

I always assume you are joking.
I’d think something was wrong with you if you weren’t

I assumed he was always serious

Well, you did win a pole.

 

[Orangeslice13]

Well, it is all stolen land.

Yup.
That’s how it works. There was always someone else there first.

Tennessee is interesting to me though. We stole the land and kept calling the area here the same thing the native people did for hundreds of years before Europeans came here.

 

[theFallGuy]

Well, you did win a pole.

Eat this

 

[NorCalVol67]

I may have misunderstood your original retort.

As we all know, I am a dumbass.

 

[theFallGuy]

[NorCalVol67]

At least I have self awareness.

 

[theFallGuy]

At least I have self awareness.

 

[NorCalVol67]

And this is what happens when we pressure Gordon into posting the game thread on a Sunday.

My favorite Christopher Titus quote about himself
“He’s an idiot, but he’s incredibly self aware “

I hope TFG doesn't rush to finish his book. It's important that he stays within the lines.

Edit: hope doesn't eat the crayons, but he eats candy corns so who nose
