native americans are particularly prone to violence, part two gillooly warlike, as it were. -- particularly warlike, as it were. you can easily run off any number of military technologies that have the names of native american nations, individuals or weapons, black hawk, apache, tom cotton -- tomahawk, and so on. native america was comprised in part before the arrival of the europeans by large cultivated societies, some of which use things that might best be described as state terror. and there -- in their application. let's move back to aged, ancient america and the societies appear terrify their subjects into a tributary people to create monument three laborecture, to perform and things like that. dozens of human sacrificial victims were burned into a mass grave along with two elite individuals. the coercive power of the elites at chaco canyon faded. but the legacy of that world of violence was there to meet the spaniards when they arrived in the mid-1500s. the early spanish expeditions in north america not only witnessed and experienced native violence as it happened in the 1500s, they also reviewed mass amounts of violence used to terrorize as they do so. my mind goes immediately to f

native americans with respect was not uncontroversial. it is certainly controversial today. you see the jefferson-jackson dinner, and many have had to change their names because being associated with slaveowners is not projecting an image of losing his that they want today. -- of inclusiveness that they want today. can we understand what is like to be president? this is the monday morning quarterback problem. brian tannehill throws an interception, and i will blame him and get really upset. but i have no idea what i'm talking about. i never play quarterback in the nfl. i don't know why he threw that interception, if it was actually the receiver in the wrong place, or maybe defeasance disguised their coverage. the coaches need to be blamed? i can't win him for that interception. similarly, can we really blame a president for any of their failures? we don't know their pressures, we don't know how the decisions were made, we don't know the information they had at the time. it might be unfair of us to tax judgment on something we have no chance of understanding until we walk in those shoes ourselves. that is why someone like john kennedy, when talking wit

i would like to read one excerpt and a friend of mine named art, army veteran, special ops guy, also a native american. and to him the great lakes represent not only a body of water but also something precious and also something that has a much deeper religious meaning. he gave me a bill called the living great lakes. it's written by jerry dennis. let me just state this and i'm going to read it because i think it's worded so magnificently by mr. dennis. to appreciate the magnitude of the great lakes you must get close to them. launch a boat on their waters or hike their beaches or climb the dooms, the bluffs and the rocky outcrops that surround them and you will see, as people have seen since the age of the glaciers, that these lakes are pretty darn big. it's no wonder sometimes upgraded to the inland seas and the sweetwater seas. calling them lakes is like calling the rockies hills. so when you see them and conceptualize in your head what it is we are talking about and what it is we are concerned about and what it is that has put in our care and custody, no one can turn away and say this doesn't fall
