GERONIMO: LET'S DO THE RIGHT ...

... thing here and return the bones of this great Apache Warrior to his people!

American Indians are petitioning Congress to investigate the elite Skull and Bones society at Yale University and return the remains of Chiricahua Apache warrior Geronimo to Apaches for reburial.

The online petition describes the desecration of Geronimo's grave in 1918 by members of the society, including President George W. Bush's grandfather, Sen. Prescott Bush. The men removed Geronimo's head and a prized silver bridle, which had been buried with him.

"Using acid and amid laughter, they stripped Geronimo's head of hair and flesh. They then took their 'trophies' back to Yale University and put them on display in the clubhouse of the secret fraternity 'Skull and Bones,'" states the petition.

He's not there, after all; he's gone on to judgment as the Scriptures say ...

And inasmuch as it is appointed for men to die once and after this comes judgment ...

But out of respect for the customs of Native Americans, it is the right thing to do. And you, Mr. President, of all people, should get behind this. Go on over and sign the petition here.
