"I wish to God I knew...if you go by the colour of my skin you'd have to say no.  They don't come much whiter than me.  I used to be a redhead with the usual pasty white skin and freckles that come with that sort of hair. You see,…"

"I thank you. There's speculation on the IMDB that Mr Ojala died in a gun-related accident.  He was 85 years old when he passed.  Do you know anything of this?  I doubt it, it seems like flamebait to me since the links were…"

"Ojala also stood in for the trick shots for Boone and other television gunfighters.  With large screen televisions and better definition it's sometimes possible to detect the difference between them from behind, but not in all cases. …"

You see, Janice, I'm adopted with no family or medical history.  I hate and despise an injustice.  What happened to the Native population of the US makes me grind my teeth with fury.  I feel the same way about slavery and current bigotry against Muslims.  And don't get me started on Women's Rights, I'd likely bore you.  I'm in favour of everyone having a fair chance with no one looking down on them, or at least, with no one speaking ill.  Sticks and stones may break bones, but words hurt, too.

I'd be extremely proud to be Native American.  If you ask me, everyone else is here on their sufferance.  When Tea Partiers start yammering about closing the borders my eyes roll so hard it's a wonder they don't fall right out.  ;-p  As if any of us have a right to be here!  We stole this country from the rightful owners who were living here in balance with nature.
