Things I’ve Seen Hate-Filled Far Left Deranged Lunatics Do

By Lang Gore, Censored News, June 14, 2024

In the spring of 2004 my partner and I went to an anti-war demonstration near the campus of the University of Arizona.  It was perfectly legal, “permitted,” so long as we stayed crowded onto the sidewalks by the cops, who seemed to outnumber us.  We were not permitted to step into the streets.  One of the speakers screamed at the cops for a very long time in a very shrill voice.  It was a demonstration, all right--a demonstration of impotence.

Someone gave us a flyer announcing a May Day march sponsored by anarchists.  We showed up on May Day at the specified park; after a few minutes everyone went into the streets, whereupon for the next few hours we walked through downtown Tucson with our banners and chants. "Whose streets? Our streets!"

American Indian Genocide Museum is Honoree of Center for Healing of Racism

"Sanitizing history was at the heart of residential boarding schools," said Steve Melendez, Paiute, President of the American Indian Genocide Museum. "The brainwashing that was encompassed in the motto, 'kill the Indian, save the man,'  ripped the children from the arms of their mothers, killed the pride self-esteem, and the very spirit of an entire generation of our people."

A federal judge tossed out the lawsuit filed by the Tohono O'odham and San Carlos Apache Nations, who filed for a restraining order on Interior Sec. Deb Haaland and an injunction to halt the bulldozers tearing through their ancient lands, destroying ancieant village sites, burial places and medicine grounds.

"American legacy prevail, broken treaties, waived protection laws and traitors scouting out loopholes," said Ophelia Rivas, Tohono O'odham.

"Such is the so called tribal sovereignty. The land holds strong and strengthened only by real people who put down the cornmeal not politicians."
