A joke about the Ben & Jerry's Independence Day message that calls for ‘stolen indigenous land’ at Mount Rushmore to be returned to Native Americans. It was also claimed that their Headquarters is build on stolen indigenous land see https://www.newsweek.com/ben-jerrys-headquarters-vermont-indigenous-chief-stolen-land-1811532

Having some blood from the native American ancestors in my family really helped me make Chief in the Navy. Maybe a little piece of land for me when they give it back.

I understand from the unofficial genealogy records that it was Irish-German Immigrants that settled in Western North Carolina with some hushed-up relationships on the “other-side” of the blanket making me part Cherokee Indian. I’m not ashamed if that’s the truth but must acknowledge that my status to having a fraction of American Indian blood somehow won’t get any reparations from the American system of justice. Ever seen movie “The Outlaw Josie Wales?”

Recalling this scene. White men have been sneaking up on the members of the Cherokee nation for centuries. That was how the West was won.

MSG Stan Hutchison get it off the corporations/ and the factory and banks that own it now. And the Federal Government as well. They could get it from the government for breach of contract, after contract, after contract,... AnD the Indigenous tribes would WIN

For those who think they may be part Native American, any of the DNA family sites will tell you if true or not. Like Ancestor.com. My family legend had it that we were part Lakota, but DNA check should we had zero blood.
Oh, well.

Ben and Jerry with their warped political views is one reason I will NOT ever buy their ice cream. I may also ad the containers of their Ice cream are also small but the price isn't.
