Disgusting.

Winnipeg Sun — Brandon Nolan denied entry into own country; asserts that guards belittled him for being Native

I shook my head when I read this, because to me it’s just the Same Old Shit. I grew up a stone’s throw from a Reservation, and all through my formative years I heard plenty of nasty comments from “upstanding” members of my community about “The People Out West”…and my mother and I were the only ones that ever had an issue with it, which always made for lots of fun.

Of course, we were the only ones in our town that had an issue with people dropping the N-bomb too…so there you go.

I hope that the individuals responsible for this get a legal horsewhipping, because that kind of conduct is and always will be completely and totally unacceptable in a modern society.
