What do "they" "admit"? That the settlers killed them all and then made the rest drunkards?

Have you ever been to a reservation? I have been to several on both coasts, none in the central US and have had Native American interns. I have never seen what I would consider a drunkard and the interns were alive so I am really not sure what you mean?

I know you are just trying to be racist against one group but you are unintentionally being racist against an entirely different group....which is scary because you must seriously believe that about Native Americans.

Read Ceremony, 'nuff said. Shittily written, imo, but it's the go-to for modern NA literature. I know of no Native Americans who can honestly say that alcoholism doesn't affect a huge portion, if not a vast majority, of the NA population. I've been to reservations from the west coast to the Rockies and a touch beyond, I have seen men panhandling and immediately turn around and buy booze with the money (0). I don't see how this is racist, you seem to have forgotten basic American history.

HA! So it was Native American not Narcotics Anonymous!
My mental handicaps are coming to light daily.
ANYWAYS
What is wrong with the damned shoes.

Topy.

The only time I'd go for a commando sole is for a pair of winter boots (which I'm currently on the hunt for) or hiking/work boots. If you're just wearing these for casual wear, then a topy will probably end up looking better.

i plan to wear them in the copenhagen winter wich tend to be quite slippery from time to time.
if i can find a good sole solution. if not they will just see dryish weather.
the middle layer in the sole is rubber so they won't be destroyed in light rain.

I could use a recommend on a good fall boot for under $200. I had been looking at the Katahdin Iron WorksÂ
