Yeah I don't get it either. I mean it's a good excuse to get together, and everyone does it, which is why as an immigrant I participate, but the actual reasoning of it is retarded.

nope no celebration here either....

would be like celebrating the day the europeans landed in africa and took all the natives on a free cruise

what is really funny about us Americans is that most are so ignorant they cannot see the effects of their own damage

theese people are this way because history has made them this way

they have been raped,,,,murdered and tortured all for trying to help the white man

they were foolish but they did not know that theese people were such of evil blood

the long term of effect on the indians is the same as it was on blacks and most any othe race touched by the violent ways of the cauca european

total devastation of culture

instead of downing them and talking shit about them drinking etc.....

understand why they are in this position in the first place

definitely not by any fault of their own

I see that some of you have a lot to learn. the people that celebrated the first thanks giving had NOTHING to do with what happened many years later. And without the help of the Indians, they would not have survived. That is the reason for the day.

I do not disagree that thousands of the indians were killed, and often for no reason, but unless you were there when the first gun was fired, or the first arrow flew, we may never know the truth of who started the killing.

Being part American Indian myself, I have heard stories of how the indians killed each other for crossing a lind of what was one tribes land. Until they decided to move that is.

Thanksgiving day should be thought of as a day to share.

Personally, Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. It's a time to be with friends and family and enjoy good food --without the pressure and commercialism of Christmas.

No one I know celebrates killing Native Americans. Any depiction or painting that I can recall illustrating Native Americans at Thanksgiving shows them along side the European settlers, sharing the harvest together.

Although, I know there were massacres a long time ago and they were regrettable. I'd like to think that fully embraced, the Thanksgiving spirit and tradition might heal some of those old wounds.

you are correct. it was the ensuing government that brought down the indian nation, not the settling pilgrims.

in a snese it was just the day that the fuse was lit. everyone kills everyone. its human nature. the real genocide didn't occur until the american govt wanted more and more of the land and there was no where else to force the indians. i know the history well, but don't wanna debate it all day.

i jsut popped in here for a few and decided to post. enjoy your day man, i didn't intend to rain on it.

i only eat 90% of the food cuz im about 10% cherokee.

well me personally I cannot find it in me to celebrate this day...no matter how hard I try

I guess you can say I am a realist and a truth seeker and the truth is

America does not deserve this holiday

but oh well just another opinion of mine and my opinions very seldom sit well with the majority because they are the truth

in 400 years we will proably have a holiday for liberating the slaves of iraq and teaching them how to use their oil because they had no clue it was worth anything


someone needs to invent a world citizenship (not belonging to any country) just free

be easy all but never let BS cloud your vision of the facts

good day

well said... for those who don't know why or when Thanksgiving was first celebrated... here ya go!

Thanksgiving is closely related to harvest festivals that had long been a traditional holiday in much of Europe. The first North American celebration of these festivals by Europeans was held in Newfoundland by Martin Frobisher and the Frobisher Expedition in 1578. Another such festival occurred on December 4, 1619 when 38 colonists from Berkeley Parish in England disembarked in Virginia and gave thanks to God. Prior to this, there was also a Thanksgiving feast celebrated by Francisco Vásquez de Coronado (along with friendly Teya Indians) on May 23 1541 in Texas' Palo Duro Canyon, to celebrate his expedition's discovery of food supplies. Some hold this to be the true first Thanksgiving in North America. Another such event occurred a quarter century later on September 8, 1565 in St. Augustine when Pedro Menéndez de Avilés landed; he and his men shared a feast with the natives.

Well... to those who don't celebrate Thanksgiving - you're missing out...it's a time to give thanks for food, family and friends... and to those who do... HAPPY THANKSGIVING - HOPE IT'S A GOOD ONE!
