[QUOTE="Vilot_Hero"] Far from that. I provided solid points(Some points were above solid). And I counted 94 wars from France. Anyone can try and disprove that.LJS9502_basic
Actually you provided only opinion...none of which was solid as you cherry pick what you consider as factual. And online dictionaries are as reliable as other dictionaries. They are published on the web instead of book form. The words aren't changed in meaning because they are on the web.

I'm sure I provided facts:| You couldn't do that. That dictionary still has the wrong definition. Conquest means to capture and hold an area.

I was going to say that, but I assumed he would probably just reply with something along the lines of, "No they're not."

I have history on my side. Your facts were easily disproven in support of what I stated.:lol:

Apparently you misunderstand the word conquest if you are arguing with a dictionary.

And on topic....I still stand by my statement vis a vis equal consequences which you disagree with.

Weird. Down here in the old US, Native American is the politically correct term.Jandurin

Proof that political correctness is idiotic.

I still need to change your opinion. Eh, I'll just do that in another topic.

EDIT: You don't have history on your side. You have opinions that I don't agree with.

So i live in Canada and supposedly up here your not allowed to say the word "native" if your white. Anyways heres the story. I was sitting math class and my friend Trevor comes up to me and calls me white as a butter and i tell him hes brown like a native. Next thing i know the teacher comes up to me tells me to leave class and wait in the hallway for the principle to come and talk to me.

He brings me up to the office and he says I'm not allowed to say the word "Native" but "First nations" and tells me he could suspend me or even expel me for saying Trevor is a native.

Then i asked him this question

"IF i was native would i be up here right now?"

and he says "Probably not" So according to him natives are allowed to say native but us white people are not.

So he gave me garbage duty instead and i had to walk around the school being laughed at.

IS the principle right or am i wrong? Just wanted to know what you guys think.

XileLord

What? Is there a more decent word you could refer to him as other than 'Native'?

I think not.
