woah! All the hostility over a single word used in a sketch. ‘Red Indian’ is just an older term. Inface John lennon used the term red in one of his songs. It’s not a term thats really used now but it’s also not ment as an offesive term.
Seems like this video has caused quite a bit of commotion between James’ looks and one small word. Just delight in the damn thing…….its hilarious!

“the English who went to north America a few hundred years” – are you one of the English pilgrims from a few hundred years ago? – plus if you scroll down you will see that i said it was a joke. i thought metta108′s comment was ironic.

Seriously.

oh- sarcasm. i get it.
yeah, i happen to be an Aboriginal person, so i know all about persons who “brutally murdered and stole the domain”.
…and to ‘us’ Aboriginal people it is not a ‘silly’ thing. it is tragedy.
sarcasm is no response to tragedy….my own comment was only regarding the name used in the U.K..

i find it silly that the English who went to north America a few hundred years ago brutally murdered and stole the domain of the Aboriginal people of North America. it still sounds silly to us humans.

i find it silly that the english call Aboriginal people from north america- “red indians”.
(i know why but still sounds silly to us north americans)….
still, they sure are cute though (and i don’t care what ‘orientation’ they happen to be…they’re still cute.
