There are many people here descended from the North Asian migrants that came over about 15,000 years ago

Asians (now Native Americans) starting showing up here 30k years ago scientists think at this point... maybe even up to 40. I'd guess even more than that, but we may never know.

Pissed they didn't let them analyze the bones for a while and still didn't get to do all they wanted. Wished they could have studied the spearpoint.

Having served in the Student Senate one year, I came to realize it is just political masturbation. Late meetings long into the night debating issues with largely halfwits and/or the politically naive. It is a controlled outlet for channeling student activism without actual consequences, rigged by the administration and the faculty advisors to their ends. If the body does something conservative or not to the administration's liking, then it is ignored. If the body does something liberal or supportive of the aims of the administration, then it's decision is trumpeted on high. Either way, it has no real power.

Students wanting to affect change of any meaningful kind would be better off working outside that system through direct activism and calculated media appeals.

Wonder if they will ever commemorate the Comanche raids to seize slaves, torture and rape captives and to loot property:
///

" John Parker was pinned to the ground, he was scalped and his genitals ripped off. Then he was killed. Granny Parker was stripped and fixed to the earth with a lance driven through her flesh. Several warriors raped her while she screamed."

'Silas Parker's wife Lucy fled through the gate with her four small children. But the Comanche overtook them near the river. They threw her and the four children over their horses to take them as captives.'

"So intimidating was Comanche cruelty, almost all raids by Indians were blamed on them. Texans, Mexicans and other Indians living in the region all developed a particular dread of the full moon still known as a 'Comanche Moon' in Texas because that was when the Comanche came for cattle, horses and captives."

"They were infamous for their inventive tortures, and women were usually in charge of the torture process."

I hate to tell you this, but this ideology is not relegated to the TAMU Student Senate.

I attended the American Psychological Association's virtual conference this Summer and I cannot tell you how many psychologists (the intelligentsia that influence public beliefs) began their presentations by stating they were on illegally obtained or unceded land belonging to Native Americans.

Discovered it in the CRT slides for our children's grades(and therefore all grades) in our school district.

Asking children to recite this nonsense is THE creepiest school curriculum I've ever seen and I used to evaluate curriculum for a living from around the country looking for out of bounds stuff.

Call me when all these whiners are giving up their jobs, houses, scholarships etc to native Americans.

They always "care," until they have to actually sacrifice something... of theirs.

It would be neat to see a party that didn't give an F about any of that and embraced the glory of Western Exceptionalism.
