Containment What If?

It's true. There's a huge stigma regarding special needs and mental illness in general in eastern Asian countries--which, by the way, have some of the highest suicide rates in the world.

To answer FifthColumn's questions: there are some xenophobic behaviors in Japanese society still, and they're a bit more apparent than in some other countries. It's exceptionally difficult, if not impossible, for a foreign-born person to become a Japanese citizen unless their parents are Japanese as well. You will occasionally see signs in Japan and Korea saying things like, "sorry, this store is for native patrons only--no foreigners." I spent a semester abroad in Osaka in college--at one point, I was taking the train to school and the conductor escorted me and my classmates into another car--which was empty--so we wouldn't have to be seen by the locals.

As far as WWII is concerned, there's a lot of denial about Japanese atrocities and the attack on Pearl Harbor. For example, one of the displays at the Peace Museum at Hiroshima reads, "in 1941, the Axis Powers attacked the United States at Pearl Harbor, thus hurling Japan into the Second World War."

Did you go to Kansai Gaidai and UWF by any chance? I saw your post in another thread about Kent Hovind and having grown up in the Pensacola area where I live.

What if Chris resorted to anonymous sperm donation in order to have the child he wants so badly and set out to search for the resulting kid?

They wouldn't accept his donation because of his

What if it was Barb who died a few years ago, and not Bob? Would Chob be in a better position now? Would Bob's freedom from :snorlax: and her piles of crap bring them back into reality?

What if Chris pissed himself and did something?

Would it come out shaped like a girl?

Maybe. It would have also depended on how he reacted to others. Like Anon said, he'd have been popular-ish on DA, but I think that if he'd gone onto DA to begin with he would have maybe taken a little longer to be discovered. Didn't he upload it on one of the oft trolled forums or something like that? I can't remember how he got discovered.

Part of the reason he got trolled was that when his comic was discovered, that it was of such terrible quality so I don't know if it would have prevented his trolling or just prolonged it. I think it would have just been prolonged because there are people who are on ED that got trolled even with some passable art talents. Snapesnogger has some decent art chops, but she eventually got herself trolled for various reasons.

Wasn't the Cherokee ancestor just a cover up Bob made for having a black ancestor?

Possible. Evidently, it was pretty common in the American South to claim Native American ancestry--particularly Cherokee--when it was suspected that there was African ancestry in the bloodline.

That being said, the Cherokee tribe was considered one of the "civilized tribes" according the Dawes Rolls (an act passed between 1900-1908 that recorded all Americans of Cherokee, Chickasaw, Choctaw, Muscogee Creek, and Seminole descent,) and there are quite a few "Chandlers" listed under the Cherokee rolls. Even more interesting is that the Cherokee tribe does not require a blood quantum to qualify for membership in the tribe--meaning that if Chris can prove unbroken lineage to somebody listed on the Dawes Rolls, he can qualify as Cherokee.

That being said, the fact that the Chandlers have not done so to get tribal benefits probably means that their Cherokee claims are full of shit.

I wonder if he doesn't know that he can ask for this? Chris is pretty lazy in general and he probably didn't realize that he could get benefits for having a Cherokee ancestor. But then, he'd also have to prove it and that'd take more than just him saying "totally Injun", so he probably would expect someone else to do all of the work for him.

He'd probably not be able to donate because he's autistic. Sperm donation places are pretty choosy about who can or can't donate, and places have turned away people who have a family history of heart disease or diabetes. I figure they'd probably turn Chris away for being autistic unless he lied about being autistic, at which point he'd get in trouble if it ever got found out. I don't think that they'd sue him necessarily, but I do think that he'd be barred from donating again.

I did a little personal research into what it would take to be recognized as a member of a Native tribe. My family has quite a bit of Lakota Sioux ancestry, but unfortunately I don't satisfy the Sioux blood quantum (1/8th is needed, I'm 1/16th) and you also need proof of previous tribal membership of an ancestor. Since my great-grandmother was illegitimate and died young and destitute, any paperwork she had--if any even existed in the first place--was lost.

The Cherokee, however, don't have as stringent rules for membership. Basically, if you had an ancestor on the Dawes Rolls and you can prove that you're a direct descendant via birth records, you can be considered legally Cherokee.

How this relates to the Chandlers can boil down to three possibilities.

1.) Bob had an ancestor on the Dawes Rolls but never went through the process to obtain tribal membership. This is unlikely. Bob was smart enough to take advantage of the GI Bill and Social Security Disability for Chris, so I'm certain that he would have taken advantage of any Native benefits if he could have collected them.

2.) Bob had an ancestor on the Dawes Rolls but didn't have the necessary documentation. Possible, but then Bob is only one generation removed from the final change to the Dawes Rolls (1914).

3.) Bob had just been told he was "part Cherokee" while growing up and just passed that bit of info down to Chris without ever verifying the authenticity of the statement. This is the most likely scenario.
