Don’t tell me about hurt feelings
To the Editor:
Oh I am so distraught; and Chief Hicks is “appalled.” The Franklin maintenance crew has killed the weeds on the Indian mound! Is nothing sacred? Why must we be subjected to these cruel and heartless insults? Is there no justice in this world? And look, just because I’m not eligible enough of an Indian to get any free casino money, that doesn’t mean I can’t empathize. When I was a kid and we’d play cowboys and Indians, sometimes I’d be the Indian. So you can’t tell me anything about hurt feelings.
Indignantly yours.
