Since the announcement that Vancouver would have the honour of hosting the 2010 Olympic Games, Native protestors have been threatening to interfere for a variety of ridiculous reasons, but yesterday the Olympic Caravan succeeded in giving the people of Six Nations the chance to see the Olympic flame by thinking on their feet to avoid a blockade by selfish protestors who wanted to deny everyone the chance to see this spectacle.
The most common excuse for them to try to shut down this international event has been the assertion that Vancouver is “stolen native land”. As those who have been paying attention have learned, anywhere that they decide to break the law suddenly becomes “stolen native land” at which point the police and government step aside so that the extremists can get away with criminal and or terrorist behaviour depending on their mood.
It’s like having a password to join a secret club really but that is not the point of this story.

After nearly 3 years of running this site there have been over 700 comments posted, and I’m pleased to say that some of those have come from Native readers with very different points of view. These have ranged from Annie from Deseronto who has taken risks to expose the true nature of the terrorist occupations that have taken place in her backyard to death threats and incomprehensible babble from extremists.
This week has brought 3 new comments from 2 very different readers who wanted to weigh in on various stories that have been posted here, and although I will publish their comments in the stories they were intended for, I think they’re worthy of a post of their own because they show the stark contrast between a gentleman who happens to be Native and proud of his heritage, and an extremist who hides behind his heritage as an excuse for criminal behaviour. Their comments will be italic and my response will not.
