No clue. The Cherokee Nation and the EBCI are entirely separate entities and truthfully, don’t really get along

That’s one of the things that makes the removal such a disgusting act on the part of our government. The Cherokee were thought of as equals in society and government at the time. It wasn’t until gold was discovered in the region that suddenly they were considered inferior.

I'm giving myself a refresher course in Cherokee history right now. It's amazing how many slaves they owned, and took with them out West.
They don't want to talk about that part. Especially the woke White trash posing as "Indians".

Yes I know who John Smith is, he helped start Jamestown

But Pocahontas was married to John Rolfe - do you get all your history lessons from Disney movies?

I'll admit. I didn't give enough of a frick about some squaw to do research.

.

Were the "Creeks" also seen as "equals"? Honest question, no troll.


Also, do you know where all the hidden Cherokee Gold is? There are legit legends around Georgia about hidden Cherokee Gold.

No. The Creeks didn’t have a system of government set up and hadn’t assimilated with the white settlers in the way the Cherokee had. They rejected westernism and education, unlike the Cherokee who embraced it and believed they could build a society that incorporated modern(of the time)values as well as traditional ones.

The gold is in Tsali caves.

What does not giving a frick about a squaw have to do with being a badass.

The punk with the fake squaw for a wife is the one playing Billy Badass.

Well, you seem to be an expert on the Trail of Tears and other things relating to Native Americans - but you don’t give a ‘frick’ about an example you used incorrectly

Who are you to say someone’s wife is or isn’t something? He could be lying, but we know your information is wrong

Fun fact: Some of the Cherokee Indians were wealthy enough to own African slaves. They used them prior to and after their relocation.

A census after the Civil War on the new Cherokee lands indicated the number in the 1000s. Not surprisingly many Cherokees fought for the south. Look up Stand Watie.

Just like when the US government was cool with Native American control of the Black Hills....until gold was found.

I knew that Pocahontas wasn’t married to John Smith - and I was just trying to correct you for future reference, especially if there are any more Native American history arguments

And you actually have no ability to know what I do or don’t know - that was one of my points in my previous reply.

I’m not as familiar with the history of the tribes in that area. The truth is, both the left and the right go to each extreme in an attempt to use native history to suit their own purposes despite most Native people disagreeing with both

Thanks for providing us with one of the most entertaining melt downs the board has seen in quite some time.

At this point, you might want to consider just posting porn and at least go out with a bang.

Lol - you don’t need to prove it to me.

But there was no way of falcon (??) to know whether or not you were lying when he called you a liar. That’s what I thought was stupid.
