REGARDLESS of what you here may think of me on a personal level, I was wondering what you think of this. I thought about it more after seeing Carlos Mencia joking about it, and actually got called an idiot for saying this on another forum, and noone agreed. But basically, the pilgrims were thanking their gods for animals that weren't their's, for the trees they chopped for shelter that weren't theirs, and the crops that grew plentiful on land that they stole. I realize that today, the holiday is seen as being thankful for what you have and a time to be with family and all (though I thought that was Xmas and that should be year-round without the excuse of some corny holiday anyways, but whatever), but the historical part is still considered a large part of it and can't be just ignored. Our decorations and such even celebrate these people, who really don't deserve it. I'll quote from elsewhere:

"While many Americans enjoy turkey dinners with their families today, a
group of local American Indians, some of whom clashed with police during a
protest two years ago, were slated to speak out against what they say is a
racist holiday. "The stories of the first Thanksgiving are total lies,"
said Wampanoag tribe member Moonanum James of Chatham. "Everyone didn't sit
down at the table, have dinner and then live happily ever after. It was the
beginning of the theft of our land and the beginning of a massive genocide."
James and hundreds of other American Indians and supporters were slated to
descend upon the statue of Massasoit on Cole's Hill near Plymouth's
waterfront at noon today to observe the 30th annual National Day of
Mourning."

Am I really blowing this out of proportion, by saying this holiday is racist? Just looking for opinions.
