Yeah. Thanks a lot.

So, most of us know the history of Thanks Giving. It's the day that the Pilgrims and the Native Americans sat down and ate a feast together to declare peace or whatever. SURE.
But did you know that soon after this historical moment took place, the Pilgrims (A.K.A: The British settlers) completely betrayed the Indians. That's right. They attacked them for their land, and tried to kill them all off. Native Americans were kind and peaceful towards the settlers, and what do they get in return? War, and hatred, and ruthless pride!
So is that what Thanks Giving is all about? Stabbing your friends in the back? The facts are all there.
So enjoy your turkey.

You're making me laugh about our terrible backstabbing. Now I will go cry. I'm so sorry about this. White people, white meat, turkey, stuffing...it tastes good to be bad. This post is great food for thought! Happy Thanksgiving back atcha.
