    Wouldn’t be the first time the U.S. ignored a treaty with a land full of indigenous people…

      This is our actual national pastime. Baseball is just a fad

        The rules to baseball seem to line up even:

        1. Someone tosses you a gift (Baseball)
        2. You smack the shit out of in a way that forces everyone to go looking for/chasing it as a distraction.
        3. Invade their bases, stealing whatever you can.
        4. Return home with your stolen bases without the other side being able to touch you in any way.
        5. Hailed as a hero.

        Which part of sportsball am I missing here.

          I’m struggling to squeeze the ground rule double into your analogy

            Something about a bullshit rule that can be exploited by those in power.
