American Natives: OBY is racist for using Geronomo as code name

[AirFlacco]

Man oh man. Some people are never satisfied. You'd think everyone would be like Galen giving
OBY the gutsy call treatment but one parent of a 9-11 victim slams OBY for taking too much
credit and the media for taking it viral. See slam OBY thread.

Now the American Natives are saying OBY is a racist for approving the
Code Name Geronomo during the kill. When the Seals killed Binny they
said we got Geronomo.

Two Horse Quigley, a Native American Iraqi War Vet was very upset
over the name and is very hurt by it. Many American tribes are demanding
an apology from OBY. Well, they've been demanding one from the Redskins for years
too.


It's in obvious reference of Geronomo, one of America's
greatest warrior chiefs taking the U.S. Army on a 2,000 mile hike
into Mexico over 10 years before surrendering. It took thousands of troops to
capture 35 indians.

Osama took the American military on a 10 year journey thru 2 countries before
they got him using the code name Geronomo.

One American Native said it's still the cowboys vs the indians. No one
understands how peaceful the indians were.

You'd think an African American President would understand.

Obviously not.

The race card was just turned vs OBY.

Live by the sword, die by the sword.

The code name was for if they caught/killed him (from my understandin) not that name for him. Little bit of over sensitivity if you ask me.

Not if you're an American Native it isn't. like I said they've been protesting the use of
Wash using the Redskins for years. They got at least one high school to drop the name.
They got the name because the original owner, Marshall, was a bigot of the worse kind
towards American Natives and African Americans. He hated them but most Americans
were bigots at the time. It's just the way it was.


African Americans would be offended if they code named it King after Martin
Luther, or Jesse after the Rev Jessie Jackson. Of course, an African American
Prez wouldn't let that happen.

It's also ironic how the Army killed all the indians then named some of their
greatest weapons systems after them like the Apache and Blackhawk helicopters.
Again, Geronomo was an Apache. The name of Indiannapolis is bleeding with
sarcasm after they destroyed and cleared out all the American natives before
they could build the city.

As far as the indians being peaceful, that's not entirely true. They were always
warring vs each other long befor the white man came. The Commanches
were the first tribe to disover and utitlize horses before the rest got them and killed
and enslaved many indians that didn't have them.

The Commanches killed more white men than any tribe in North America. They
went on a spree from Austin, Texas to Galveston killing every whit man in its
path and raping and enslaving the women.

The Sioux ventured down to Apache terroritory before getting their asses
kicked. They claimed that the white man ventured into their holy Black Hills
when gold was discovered, but they killed all the indians and drove them out
of the area when they moved in.

In Canada, the Hebron and Blackhawks were vicious warring tribes. The
Blackhaws came all the down the Susquehanna River and drove out the
Susquehannas and enslaved the Delaware indians, another warring
tribe.

They weren't as peaceful as they say but not as bad as the movies
make them out. They made many peace treaties which were usually broken by
the white man or the gov't.

The indians held the entire US military to a complete standstill for over 80 years
before they were conquered and finally put aside at Wounded Knee but even that
battle is as lopsided as the books say. Over 25 soldiers were killed as indians began
re-grouping on the reservation and the Army was called in.

Custer's last stand actually became the indians last stand. Within a year Crazy Horse
surrendered while starving to death after the Army surrounded him. His people were
dying. Years larter, Sitting Bull was kiled while resisting arrest on the resevation after
starting a disturbance. Killed by his own indians.

As Galen would say - f*ck you Bigot.
_________________________________________________________________
Here's a story some might find amuzing and others sad. Halyn Geronomo,
the great grand son of the famous warrior chief sued Yale University and
the Skulls and Bones Society to get his grand father's remains back.

He made an appeal to W as President to get them back for him but he
never answered him so he sued.

This all started back during WW1 and W's grand father, Prescott Bush
was in the ARmy and stationed at Ft Sil, OKLA where Geronomo died and was
buried. He got drunk one night and passed out in the rain and died of
pneumonia.

Legend has it the elder Bush heard that Gernomo was buried so close to him he
got the idea to dig up his remains and send them back to the club house
of the Skulls and Bones. There could be no better gift to the club than
to have real skulls n bones of a famous indian warrior no less in their
trophy case.

So he dug them up, cut off the head and the arms,put them in a box
and mailed them to the club house. It was a big hit and they are still there
today. Several witnesses have given accounts of it in newspaper articles and
on radio and TV shows, as they saw them in the trophy case.

Halyn Geronomo pleaded with W to retrieve the bones. Indians believe
you cant find the trail to the after life if they are missing. So Halyn
believes that his famous great grandfather is not in the after life utopia
because he can't find the trail.

The reason the indians mutilated their victims bones was so they couldn't
find the trail to the after life. They believed they would have to fight them
again along the trail so they mutilated their bodies so they couldn't follow
them and the Gods would not accept them because they were so ugly.

We call that savagery but it was perfectly logical to the indians.

Bush never responded to Halyn. He's not supposed to talk about the Skulls
at all. In his autobiography he mentioned being a member but said thats
all I can say about it. John Kerry also mentioned the Skulls when he ran vs Bush but
said it is so secret I can't say anything else. Bush and Kerry were the first Bonesmen
to run vs each other for President.

Both his father, H Bush and grandfather were members. It was formed in
1832 by a student who had studied in Germany and returned and formed
the club.

At least 4 US Presidents (Taft, W, and H come to mind) and several Supreme Court
Justices and many congressmen (Taft of the Taft Hartley Act)graduated from the Skulls.
Many others run all facets of the
gov't at the highest level. They are also in the highest level of medicine
education and business as heads of the largest corporations. Can you say oil?

Bonesmen are hand picked and receive money at the time and supposidly financial security
for the rest of their lives. When Prescott Bush graduated he worked for Rockefeller who
set him up in business.


Bonesmen also controlled the financial fortunes of Rockefeller and Carniegie. In fact,
Barbara Bush's father ran the bank that had Rockefeller's money so it was no accident
that she met H Bush who's father worked for Rockefeller and later started his own company
that manufactured the drills for oil wells. Kerry of course was set up with the Heinz Ketchup
empire via marriage.


The Skulls are big on wars to and both H and W started them - big ones. At the
Skull's direction? There are other societies at Yale just like them and they keep tabs on
each other.

So here's the story of Halyn Geronomo still trying to get the remains
back so his great grand father can find the trail.


He even looks like Geronomo.
