**If it were to fly, I'd love to see the American Indians sue to get their land back. Now THAT is one that makes sense.**
Thats the bent my previous post was angling at. The old man is Shawnee-Cherokee and he's actual chuckling over this suit. His thoughts are, we'll have the Summer home around Xenia Ohio where his faamily on his Mom's side lived and the Winter home down in the Carolinas where his Dads family lived. lol
Odd thing, both sides of his family fought for the North. There is a church in Alabama that was used as a civil war hospital, and it was left as it was then. Museum style. And in candle soot on one of the angled ceilings where the cots were placed, is his family name. That man almost died in Andersonville for that war. Several others DID die. He owes what to whom?
We owe who WHAT? BS! He holds no grudges to be truthful so why are they? More Indians suffered than the Slaves of African ethninticity. <sp?> Ahh but he has abit of the Irish blarney in him too. Also his Irish ancestor was beknighted in England so they have a Brit coat of Arms. Maybe THAT keeps him from being upset that his tribes were both forced to march a thousand miles on foot IN the Winter so that the slaves HAD fields to work in.
His only statement has been let the wasitay set precedence and we will own Ohio once again. He just got back from tinkering with yet ANOTHER war. Seems these Injuns just love a good fight and will travel.
