Maybe they too should celebrate. The original Pilgrims signed a compact with the American aborigines that stood unbroken for sixty years. English explorers had already been to the US and were already planning to exploit it prior to the Pilgrims' arrival.

(Seriously, the "Pilgrims brought on the great Native American diaspora" thing gets old.)

Around here they do. You'll find just about any Choctaw, Opelousa or whatever tribe family getting together and eating turkey with oyster dressing and such.

Yeah.. contrary to media "OMG!" hype, seafood, including oysters, are to be had around here from non-contaminated areas. Albeit, the price is up, because BP, and friends, did manage to f-up some areas. But hey, we can be Thankful that they didn't trash the entire coastline. :D

Save a turkey. Eat a kobold.
