That's what happens with diseases to which a people has no natural immunity. Can't blame the Europeans totally.

Not that the U.S. behave kindly to the Indians, because it certainly didn't. It did a grand amount of harsh and inhumane things.

With that said, and in addition to the disease, let's not act like the Indians were peace-loving peoples. Many of them actually used alliances with the U.S. to fight or wipe out rival tribes.

In fact, isn't the origin of Thanksgiving come out from a tribe getting along with the Pilgrims after the two joined forces to destroy another tribe?
