Please Don’t Shout Dear, It Isn’t Ladylike. Or Clever.
Why are female wingnuts such harridans? Is it because they’re so used to being shouted down by their male meathead counterparts?
Via Digby, this from Debbie Schluessel, who posted that some studies on earwax and race prove that the US wasn’t stolen from Native Americans at all:
FOR THE UMPTEENTH TIME, I DIDN’T SAY THEY STOLE IT FROM ANYONE. HELLO, LIBERALS . . . . IT WAS A RHETORICAL QUESTION. THE POINT IS THAT WE DO NOT KNOW WHETHER OR NOT THEY WERE THE FIRST PEOPLE HERE, BUT EVEN IF THEY WERE, THAT DOESN’T MEAN THE LAND WAS THEIRS. IT MEANS THEY TOOK IT. I DON’T NEED TO DO RESEARCH/GOOGLE. I KNOW WHAT I’M TALKING ABOUT. BUT YOU NEED TO RE-TAKE “READING COMPREHENSION.” DITTO FOR THE REST OF THE LIBERALS. AT LEAST, YOU DID NOT TAKE TO INSULTS, OR YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN BANNED LIKE THEY WERE.DEBBIE SCHLUSSEL
That diatribe was in response to this relatively mild comment:
“If memory serves me right, Asians and native Americans also share “shovel shaped” incisors, (a trait expressed in the hominid homo erectus) but does not show up in European or African populations. Scientific Evidence suggests people migrated to North America between 25,000 to 30,000 years ago. At that time, no other homo sapiens, or even hominoids for that matter (except MAYBE gigantopithecus) had crossed the Bering straits to North America. Essentially, they were the first people to get here and continued to live here for thousands and thousands of years until we finally showed up.
So you ask “whom did THEY steal the land from?” They didn’t steal it from anyone, do a little bit of research next time you write an article concerning anthropology, it would’ve taken you about 5 minutes on google. “
