[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;22697139]Again. Just because I'm a history major does not mean I know EVERY FUCKING ASPECT about history.[/QUOTE] you're making this seem like it's the intricate details of the lives polynesian fishermen prior to the 1600s what happened to the native americans is a huge fucking detail, and as a history major, especially one in the united states you should know about it fear not though, i would say the same thing if the topic was the second world war or whatever you favour your 'area of expertise'

Besides. I said I was a history MAJOR. Meaning I do NOT have a degree in history. Christ, I hope EVERYONE here forgives me for this god damn imperfection.

[QUOTE=Lambeth;22697004]You've used conservative as a insult more times than I can count[/QUOTE] so?

[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;22697229]Meaning I do NOT have a degree in history.[/QUOTE] uh, isn't that what you're working towards [editline]12:12AM[/editline] [QUOTE=Lambeth;22697247]If he were a Canadian, perhaps there would be more emphasis on native americans.[/QUOTE] what

[QUOTE=JDK721;22697233]so? [/QUOTE] You're not refuting it, so I'm assuming you're agreeing that you throw "conservative" out at me as an insult. As an insult. Insult. And you don't insult people you like. Thus, you dislike me.

[QUOTE=JDK721;22697250]uh, isn't that what you're working towards [/QUOTE] Working towards != There

[QUOTE=JDK721;22697250] what[/QUOTE] must gather thoughts before posting [editline]09:14PM[/editline] Anyway how about we stop paying attention to Scorp's ass and actually talk about the subject at hand

[QUOTE=Lambeth;22697247]If he were a Canadian, perhaps there would be more emphasis on native americans.[/QUOTE] well that's a result of having a better developed schooling system but as a history major it's kind of assumed you have at least an above average idea of history what do you even study scorpious?

[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;22697275]Working towards != There[/QUOTE] I know that, but haven't you learned about the Native Americans..?

My extent of american indian history doesn't go any farther than the trail of tears.

[QUOTE=Chippay;22697302]well that's a result of having a better developed schooling system but as a history major it's kind of assumed you have at least an above average idea of history what do you even study scorpious?[/QUOTE] Ancient Rome :hist101: And medieval history.

Scorpious is acting extremely defensive.

[QUOTE=JDK721;22697324]I know that, but haven't you learned about the Native Americans..?[/QUOTE] I said "weak". Not "non-existant".

Canadian history is much more up front about what happened to their native americans

[QUOTE=thisispain;22697338]Scorpious is acting extremely defensive.[/QUOTE] Because it was an our right insult at me this time, not a refute of any statement.

[QUOTE=thisispain;22697338]Scorpious is acting extremely defensive.[/QUOTE] because people are attacking him over some irrelevant shit

[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;22697330]Ancient Rome :hist101: And medieval history.[/QUOTE] ew, everyone studies ancient rome i mean ancient rome is great and all, but it's not like there's a whole lot of untreaded ground oh well, i have to commend you though. i had you pegged for one of those people who study the intricacies of ww2

[QUOTE=JDK721;22697324]I know that, but haven't you learned about the Native Americans..?[/QUOTE] I imagine they largely ignore all that, myself also, why is everyone teaming up on Scorp? it's kinda ridiculous

[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;22697351]Because it was an our right insult at me this time, not a refute of any statement.[/QUOTE] gotta pick your battles

They drive me nuts. They think the world began, then WWII happened. I prefer WWI much more anyways.

"WWI" "Oh, that was boring. It just had trenches". It's complete garbage, hearing that. They don't even talk about the battles that raged in the colonies of Africa, or Asia. Fuck, does anyone even know that Japan entered WWI on the Allies side, and actually sent a destroyer into the Mediterranean to aid the British against the Turks and Austrians? I doubt it.

Not just the war, but everything that led up to it, and everything that fell apart after it. In a strange sense, it's almost beautiful how amazing it played out, if that makes any sense.
