Oh, swell.
So now we're all a bunch of "Typhoid Marys".
Yeah, like women never get sick unless a MAN sneezes on them or something. Now we're supposed to believe that all sickness comes from men. Next they'll be saying men are rabies carriers like vermin.
Well, they ALREADY consider us vermin, right?

And in Road Safety ads, men are ALWAYS the cause of the accident.

In the anti-tobacco commercials sponsored by the State of California, they often dramatize scenes showing "evil executives" in a boardroom at a tobacco company plotting how they can harm more people by selling their product. Not surprisingly, all these evil executives are white men.
Although I personally feel smoking is the most disgusting thing on the face of the planet (besides feminism), I take a libertarian attitude when it comes to adults making their own decisions. Regardless, I find it ironic that these politically correct anti-tobacco commercials either: 1) hate men by implying that only men can be evil; or 2) believe that women and minorities don't belong in the company boardroom.

I find it interesting that those ads show "evil white guys" as the 'tobacco monster'.
It was actually we Indians who first introduced tobacco to the Western world.
We use tobacco in alot of our ceremonies and in prayer. It was never meant to be abused, though. I'm guilty of it myself, I am a smoker. Both cerenonialy and casually.
I probably shouldn't point out the origions of tobacco, though. Because knowing the media's antipathy towards Indians they may come up with ads depicting us Indians as shoving cigaretts into people's mouths as we stereotypicaly scalp them, or something...! I don't know.

TC:
Considering all the land that's been stolen from the indigenous peoples, I would considering blaming the Indians last for any side effects someone may get from smoking tobacco.

Boy Genteel-
Thank you for asking.
She's doing much better, now. She is home from the hospital after a week's stay.
She's getting around better now and is getting back to her old, grouchy self.
It was a close call, though. But I really do believe in the power of prayer, and I want to thank you and everyone else who prayed for her to recover. As I said she has been doing so steadily. Hopefuly she and I will be back on the Powwow circut this spring. :-)
Again, Thanks for asking, and thanks for the prayers.
Thundercloud.

I remember in my psychology class a few years back, we learned how racism was accepted as the norm in the media, and how blacks were constantly the scapegoat and butt of all jokes and pranks. They showed us a old , cute disney flick with little kids in it--two white kids, and a black kid. The two white kids run and jump over a log, while the black one trips humorously. I believe MEN are the last group to go in the cycle of HATE and PREJUDICE. Our time will come to overcome it...

“You can’t touch this,” has alerted the world to the primary infection vector: men.
Haven't these nimrods at Purell ever heard of Typhoid Mary?
