May you all have much for which to be thankful.

May you never take these things for granted.

May the good outweigh the bad.

May you find aid when you need it.

May you offer aid when it is needed.

May you find and give happiness.

    I grew up on one of the better reservations. We had paved roads, clean water, modern medical facilities, even proper schools. While people outside the reservation would learn the possibly fictional account of the settlers who supposedly shared a feast with an unnamed tribe, we were being taught about things like the Mystic River Massacre that happened around the same time.

    Thanksgiving is a holiday predicated on the forceful and violent appropriation of lands and resources of the native tribes. So in honor of all those whose land was taken from them and poorly taken care of, Happy You're Welcome Day.

    Hey! It's like Christmas!! A jolly holiday based in one of the most brutal religions, the abrahamic religions! :D>

    Hooray! :D

    I grant you that the origins of the holiday are steeped in blood. What I don't understand is the insistence that choosing to be thankful for the gifts you have received should make you feel guilty. I'm not saying "get over it"- i have enough native American ancestors that that would be extremely hypocritical- but I am saying: spend some time reflecting on what you have been given and try to be thankful for that.

    I think s/he's thinking, "Ah, all is well with the world. Here before me is the turkey, a proper prey beast for the mighty house cat hunter. Hey, you, get away from mah bird!"

    To all on this holiday and every other day, may the wind be ever at your back.

    Happy Thanksgiving.

    Said without all the pretentious bull ----, just an honest non cynical heart felt wish for all of us to be happy and grateful for all the blessings we have without all the idiotic whining and trolling.

    The origins of the holiday are quite peaceful. The surviving pilgrims who celebrated with Tisquantum and the Wampanoag at the first Thanksgiving enjoyed 50 years of peaceful cooperation and coexistence with them.

    However, that which came before and after is certainly worthy of condemnation.
