wow-this is so distasteful and the fact that people are trying to make sense of it makes me sick to my stomach.

if i came to your house and killed your women and took your stuff and set up camps (reservations) for your family to live in substandard conditions, limited our access to water, economic development and i then created a cake w/ white ridiculous figurines you'd be pissed off too-u get mad at the slightest disrespect to your country and culture. talking about you won't eat french fries!

the oppression of native peoples is not something from past, today we still struggle for our survival-to live w/ dignity! hundreds of treaties remain unhonored. this isn't a joke. some european-americans show very little sense and sensitivity when it comes to other cultures. who the hell are YOU to decide when your being racist. ur arrogant and lack an understanding of the world around you! shame on you-all of you who posted in defense of this crappy birthday party them...it's incredibly disrespectful along w/ your indian mascots.

if your children want to learn about native culture make it meaningful and respectful. teach them what colonizers did and begin to take action for better conditions for native people. teach them to be compassionate. stop using us as your halloween costumes, birthday themes, professional team mascots...its evil and it lacks integrity! your history w/ native people has created a very delicate relationship, pls don't ever think we have forgotten (just b/c you have).
