A Conservative's Guide to the Perfect Thanksgiving

Pause and reflect on the first Thanksgiving, way back in 1621. The savage Indians, tragically unacquainted with God, were so grateful to the Pilgrims for bringing them the light that they prepared a feast for them.

And thanks to those early settlers converting or killing everyone who opposed them, America has been a Christian nation ever since!

In return, we introduced them to guns, deprivation, and death.
