The US House of Representatives on Monday approved by voice vote a measure honoring legendary Apache warrior Geronimo's bravery 100 years after his death. The nonbinding resolution honors his life, "his extraordinary bravery, and his commitment to the defense of his homeland, his people, and Apache ways of life." The lawmakers certainly didn't honor him when he was alive! -It took them 100 years to do so. Pathetic! More about Goyathlay (Geronimo) HERE.
