Well...having lived in N.C. in Lumbee country I can say for sure they are not folks you wanna mess with. A tough group who delighted in disrupting certain "sheet rallies" back in the 60s. Gotta love 'em whoever they are.

I always get a hoot out of political references to the ideals of the founding fathers...while some of my Mayflower ancestors were for sure merchants bent on making a buck, the Mayflower Compact sure seems like a bit of early commune living...and the Mayflower passengers were brightly dressed and prolific in their love of each other...would fit in well with some 20th century communes...just my opinion...

For sure an opportunity for Mayflower descendents to consider the Dutch Friendship tartan for all the help they got in Leyden.
