.... Hernando Cortes for the bloodbath.

.... it wasn’t busy. When the season was on, we worked until 9 o’clock. No overtime pay, not even supper money. There was a bakery in the garment center that produced little apple pies the size of an ashtray and that was what we got for our overtime instead of money.” That paragraph just blew me away when I first read it. I can’t imagine little, innocent, eight, nine, ten year olds working long hours in a very big, tough, factory. I find it to be very sad to see business tycoons putting little children to work. Another sad fact, “And when the inspectors came around, do you know what happened? The supervisors made all the children climb into one of those crates t ....

.... ballistics tests to prove it. They say they can also prove that there was immoral and illegal conduct on the part of the FBI during Peltier's trial those eighteen long years ago.

.... She was the baby of the family, with four older brothers and sisters. Sitting in Catholic school, she tried to be the cute little girl she was supposed to be but on the playground, she was a terror. At the age of 5, she joined her first soccer league, which happened to be a boys’ team. Things stayed the same way until she got to high school. She began to notice boys and began to date. No one in her family had ever talked to her about the “birds and the bees,” or even about dating. Instead, independence, self-reliance, and strength were the most important things. If they had problems, they worked it out on their own. This served her poorly when she found herself ....
