someday 0 #1 June 30, 2007 maybe go fast sports (love GFS) can talk to the indians and sponsor a gofast skywalk day at the grand canyon skywalk think it could/would ever happen? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nicrussell 0 #2 June 30, 2007 I dont think the nation of India or its people have anything to do with the skywalk above the 'grand canyon'. maybe the eskimos could help. This shit irritates the hell out of me. there are a lot of cultures native to the americas, Indians are NOT one of them. India is not near geographically to the US (or inside the boundries of the US). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/India Please DO NOT continue to disrespect the cultures of the various native nations of north america by calling them "indians". Indians are a proud and good culture too. But they are a totally different culture. This is 5th grade material kids. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
none4mety 0 #3 June 30, 2007 I have many 'native american' friends, some have been very close friends, most (not all) prefer to be called "Indians" btw, the term 'eskimo' is consdered by my Inuit/Indian friends to be derogatory. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skysquatch 0 #4 June 30, 2007 unfortunately, we live in a classifying society everything must fit into a catagory by some certain standard. i believe that they (i don't know who they are) have redefined the politically correct way of classifying people recently. Asian Indian American Indian these and other terms are found in some census forms and school applications (to see if you qualify for certain minority grants) there is no sense in losing your temper over a few words. it is easier and nicer to just inform people, and move on knowing that they hopefully will not make the same mistake. not many people spend their time staying up on current classifications.Balls deep! FENCE!!!! Calmer than you are. www.launchtelevision.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
