The Epitome Of Racism!
The following was sent to me by Larry Mitchell, author of “Potawatomi Tracks” I find it to be the epitome of racism. It is deviation from my usual upbeat theme for “Native Unity” but am running it, in its original form – even with the misspelled word “Chronicle” - to see how most of you folks react to these kinds of derogatory comments.- bobbie.

"Once again folks, it is time for POND SCUM OF THE MONTH! This month's pond scum just happens to be the Kickapoo Indian Tribe.
I was reading the Topeka Capital Journal a couple of weeks ago, and they had a story about how the Upper Delaware River was just about dried up. The Kickapoo leaders were complaining that they didn't have much drinking water, and that Congress had promised them taxpayer money several years ago, which was intended to build the Plum Creek Reservoir. Except Congress has never given anyone the funds yet.
I know what some of you are thinking? But Jimbo! We need to help those poor poverty-stricken, helpless Native Americans? Well folks, for those of you who don't get out enough? Those poor Kickapoo Indians own the Golden Eagle Casion, which rakes in millions of dollars a year in profits!
And one of the things that irritates me about those so-called journalists from the Topeka Capital-Journal, is they never ask tough questions!
It seems they wouldn't want to offend an Indian? If I had been doing that story? I would have set down with the tribal leader and said, now look here Sitting Bull, or whatever the heck your name is! Just what are you doing with all of that Casino money, that you can't take care of your own water
problem?
Maybe if you people put the bottle down once in awhile, you might be able to quit mooching of the American taxpayer? Folks! I makes me madder than a wet hen when millionaires mooch off the rest of us!
Some of you may wonder? Just where is the Kickapoo Indian Reservation? Well folks! You drive about 30 miles north of Topeka and then go east a few miles, and you can tell by the large supply of empty bottles lining the ditches that you on the Reservation!
As many of you know, I am a big fan of old western movies! I was thinking the other day about all of the old John Wayne westerns and how he had Indians attack him all the time. And did you ever once hear of John Wayne being attacked by the Kickapoo Tribe? he was always fighting off the
Apaches, the Souix, the Navajo, but never the Kickapoo!
Just why was that? Maybe some of you are thinking that he should have, because the Kickapoo are in Kansas? Wrong folks! The Kickapoo are originally from the Wisconsin area, and the reason the wound up here is because a bunch of dairy-farming cheese-eaters whipped them good and
sent them to us!
And now, we the Kansas people who allowed them to own their own casino, have to listen to them whine and complain for more tax-dollars even though they are now millionaires!
Have you ever been to the Golden Eagle Casino? Have you ever seen an Indian sitting out front holding a sign that said "WILL WORK FOR FOOD"? Heck no you haven't! There isn't any Indians starving on that reservation!
Have we become so stupid that we now allow the rich to spend our tax dollars
just because they are too cheap to spend their own money?
And just how come, we the people of Kansas, get stuck with all the wimpy Indians that have names like Kickapoo, Potawatamie, and Sac and Fox?
I used to to work with a friend of mine whose Dad was Potawatamie, and his
mom was Kickapoo and I told him that made him a Pot-a-poo!
Maybe the Kickapoo Indians are living in the wrong country? Many Americans view Indians as worthless drunks! Maybe we should build them a reservation in another country such as Ireland? Just imagine folks! In Ireland, our Indians would seem to be respectable citizens compared to the hard-drinking ancestors that I have!
Hopefully by the time you read this our heat wave will be over with? I had another one of my chicken's die last week when it was over 100 degrees! Those poor old hens sit on their nest every afternoon panting like dogs in the heat and it makes me feel sorry for them. I took a fan out to the brooder house to help them stay cooler, but they were scared of it and wouldn't even go in to lay an egg. So, I took it back into the house.
Did you see where all the elderly people died in France? It is important that we in America always check on our Grandparents and make sure they have an airconditioner, and have it turned on! If you have a new car, or a new Harley Davidson and your Grandma is suffering in the heat? You need
to rethink your lifestyle! Because we are not the obnoxious, socialist French!"
