I'm talking about the twelve million people, men, women and children killed by our armed forces since the end of ww2.

It’s amazing the vast difference of opinion between the Native American thread and this one and damned near every other. In that thread the natives had it coming because "they were savages that brutally enslaved each other" and "they weren’t strong enough so it was inevitable they be conquered, freedom = strength " and such.
