Re: Las Vegas Shooter
Yes Da what is a Cherokee school?It's nothing.....if you read my post(s) correctly in this thread where I am sarcastically mocking Ted's faux acumen at dispensing Legal Advice , and are familiar with the absurd backstory/history of Ted's whole claim of "Cherokee Heritage" which evolved a couple weeks back in another thread of mine. then you would understand there is absolutely nothing racist or ill-intended when I wrote "Cherokee School". . . . Obviously I am being sarcastic when I cite Ted attending LAw School so it was a natural fit (or segue) into sarcastically stating he graduated from "Cherokee School!" (i.e. a school where one learns how to become a CHEROKEE, not a school that is ONLY for, attended only by, or otherwise revolves around Cherokee People.)

As a graduate of a Big 10 school in Illinois, I got into trouble once for sarcastically asking a fellow attorney if he received his law degree from Michigan. For literally YEARS I had comments from Michigan law grads about my insensitive, derogatory, inflammatory comment.

Did you ever consider that if you didn't post stupid ****, you wouldn't have to constantly defend the stupid **** you post?
It's a never ending cycle these days. Either you are defending your attacks on veterans or now your ill advised attacks someone's heritage.

DaBurglar my "Cherokee Heritage" as you refer to it did not "evolve" a couple weeks ago. Going back many years, I've posted here in the forums of my Cherokee lineage.
Now, again, you make a post backtracking and trying to justify and make some sense out of the racist post you made.

Me too Ted. On my mom's side, the family has been here since the 1600's, thus the Cherokee blood in my line too. Best I can determine about one sixteenth. I probably should do the DNA check that is always advertised.

I never said anything about Cherokee Heritage or any heritage....my original post simply made an incidental mention of a "saying" that happened to be Cherokee, and it could easily have been chinese or greek or Roman etc. As I have told numerous times, go back the original post and read (but you won't do that because its easier to go with the fake narrative now in motion.) Nothing racist, nothing concerning "Stupid ****" etc. I never "Attacked Veterans" either, I just don't trip over myself deifying ANYONE and everyone who served in the military simply because that is absurd; blanket assumptions and collective judgements about a groups or races or religions usually are....I defy you to cite where I "attacked" veterans......

Either you are defending your attacks on veterans or now your ill advised attacks someone's heritage.That's your opinion (your opinion that its "stupid", and your assessment as to what constitutes "Constantly" defending.....where or what evidence is there that I am constantly defending? the vast, VAST majority of my posts are NOT me defending anything but rather are a wide variety of topics, and themes and "tones") .....still, you give a considerable amount of your time and attention to my "Stupid sh88"

And as I mentioned in a prior post: you simply needed to just say "A grandfather told his grandson" instead of saying "A Cherokee grandfather."
I don't believe this to be the first time you've posted something racist or sexist.
I'm up late watching "The Sting."

From the internet( so you know it is accurate.)
The Tale of Two Wolves is often attributed to the Cherokee indians but there seems to be no real proof of this. It has also been attributed to evangelical preacher Billy Graham and Irish Playwright George Bernard Shaw. It appears no one knows for sure but this does not diminish the power of the parable.
This parable goes by many names including:
The Tale of Two Wolves
The Parable of the Two Wolves
Two Wolves
Which Wolf Do You Feed
Which Wolf are You Feeding
Which Wolf Will You Feed
It also often features different animals, mainly two dogs.
Excerpt from Google Answers:
Â
Using Amazon.com's "Search Inside the Book" feature, my friend and
colleague Leli found two books which contain variations of the Tale of Two Wolves story:
From "The Holy Spirit: Activating God's Power in Your Life," by Billy
Graham (1978):
"An Eskimo fisherman came to town every Saturday afternoon. He always
brought his two dogs with him. One was white and the other was black.
He had taught them to fight on command. Every Saturday afternoon in
the town square the people would gather and these two dogs would fight
and the fisherman would take bets. On one Saturday, the black dog
would win; another Saturday the white dog would win - but the
fisherman always won! His friends began to ask him how he did it. He
said, "I starve one and feed the other. The one I feed always wins
because he is stronger."
From "Experiencing the Soul: Before Birth, During Life, After Death,"
by Eliot Rosen and Ellen Burstyn (1997):
"A Native American Elder once described his own inner struggles in
this manner: 'Inside of me there are two dogs. One of the dogs is mean
and evil. The other dog is good. The mean dog fights the good dog all
the time.' When asked which dog wins, he reflected for a moment and
replied, 'The one I feed the most."
