Some of my best friends are Norwegian.UW_Doog_Bot said:
There you go again, talking down to minorities. It doesn't matter what was said, it matters how it could be interpreted given the context. You need to learn the difference between punching up and punching down.HHusky said:
I didn't offer any opinion "of whether [you] include Mrs. Warren in [y]our identity group."UW_Doog_Bot said:
I'm sorry Hondo but this is a minority conversation now. BTP and I are speaking from our experiential truth and your attempts to oppress our expression are neither inclusive or sensitive as an ally of minorities. You and HH's opinions of whether we include Mrs. Warren in our identity group are invalid in this context.2001400ex said:
To clarify. Skin color is not indicative of blood. I know many blond hair blue eyes natives.UW_Doog_Bot said:
I'm white as snow Norwegian and I have more Native American ancestry than her. JFC I guess she "identifies" as Native American lol.HHusky said:
It does prove she had a little Native American ancestry.UW_Doog_Bot said:Most of my liberal friends are still claiming the DNA test proves she IS a native american. lol.

I didn’t say you did. I said you would.2001400ex said:
I asked a question on Bob's comment. That's not defending. FuckstickMikeDamone said:
You’ll defend this...but you aren’t partisan. Got It!2001400ex said:
To be clear. Are you saying she was able to practice law because she put Indian on that document?SFGbob said:
Liberals have been defending her for years by claiming that she never tried to use her phony Indian heritage to advance herself academically or professionally. That claim was always a lie and now we have indisputable evidence that it was always a lie. She is toast.Sledog said:
And I was right. You lying fuck -
This cunt should be tortured, drawn and quartered.
Send her to the boys at Pine Ridge. -
No question. Let's put that part to bed. There is no more treasured group for the affirmative action people than Native Americans (Hi @Swaye ). More than the blicks and hispanies. Way more.ToddTurnerLIVES said:
I'm not a Democrat or a Republican and I don't root for either side as I don't think our current political systems serves the people.2001400ex said:To be clear. Are you saying she was able to practice law because she put Indian on that document?
I have no idea what SFGbob meant but it's impossible to know if it's helped her unless we go back and talk with every admissions board/human resources department that has ever considered her credentials for admittance/a job offer.
I know this... it definitely didn't hurt her.
In my opinion, hypocrisy is a particularly damning character flaw and I can't help but think that if it had come out that Trump or Romney or some other Republican was in the same situation as Warren that the mob would be calling for their head and attempting the ruin their life/career. However, since Warren is on their "team" she is somehow skating by without the same repercussions that a Republican would be facing.
Intent matters and I have no idea if Warren was just misinformed or consciously misleading people by claiming she was a Native American. If she was knowingly misrepresenting herself than she should face the same mob that Trump would face for the same infraction.
I get that the Tug doesn't do nuance but at least I tried...
Fun Fact ( I think Swaye knows this): Dartmouth College was chartered to educate native Americans. To date, they have educated the least of any college in New England. I'm guessing if a native applies there with any kind of academis pulse, they get in.
Being injun is awesome in college admissions. -
