they do not rule, their just more comfortable with lies via omission...their not teaching womens history properly or teaching it at all, we women have to fight the ed dept to get that changed quick, or the culture of misogyny we continue to devalue womens contributions, which is part of the reason for programmatically omitting women exist..its been going on since the iron age, overthrowing matriarchal cultures and societies with violence ...its their bullying legacy of deceit
The Aztec people did not rip out random hearts and kick peoples head down stairs, this writer needs to do better research. The only time Aztec people sacrificed human life, by taking hearts, was during the festival of Xipe Totec. Which was a celebration for the coming of spring. The ones that were sacrificed were captured warriors. The captive warrior was taken care of by the one who captured him, he was seen as a representation of that warrior. During the ceremony the battle is recreated between the captured and the other warriors. after the recreation the captured warrior's heart was taken and given to the gods. Though there are many other ceremonies in which sacrifices were used as a way to please certain gods, none of those sacrificed were random people.
I want to know how "pressure from caring for his ailing mother" landed him in prison? I never thought feeling pressured was enough reason to lock someone up. i figured that if he landed in jail, he broke the law to get there!
The author certainly didn't pay attention in grammar school. The description of a Mason does not constitute a logical sentence. He also doesn't know the first thing about history. Looks like typical, politically correct myth pusher. As Patrick Henry said, "Go lick the hand that feeds you."
Who the heck is this author? "weird looking dudes", "Screwed again"??? Someone is paying this 22 year old moron to be a "journalist"? The article reeks of personal opinion, run-on sentences, and worst of all, failed attempts at trying to convince us he has a literary style that screams wit. He does not. Speaking to us like a typical teenage punk won't endear us any closer. The subject matter would have made an interesting read had it not been assigned to a bone-headed dim-wit who admits to watching reruns of The Office in his underwear. Is that really something to be proud of?
OMG The huff n puffington post with an expose on Watergate? How about a little something from this decade/century? How about an expose on Benghazi? or maybe fast and furious? did those guns alter anyones history? oh, yes won't the obamacare taxes alter some history? Quick, let's switch to a huff puff 30 second ad before viewing the next spot!
OMG the Barton Mitchell thing - stuff like this is *still* happening in our military to this day. I wont compare my own story to some of the things I've heard but....let's just say there are some really unjust decisions being made when it comes to sick & wounded troops.
