Most of it. We straight up stole Tennessee and forced the civilized tribes to Oklahoma. This was well after conquest. The trail of Tears?
But we needed the land.

Well they’d have to also return the trinkets they got for Manhattan

actually it was a gift to each group of people until unrepentant sin forced God to give it to another.

Sure, that clearly makes it better.


Conquering African tribes historically would take prisoners and turn them into slaves.

How would the injuns feel if this land was under English, Spanish, or French rule? How about Muslim rule?
God Bless the U.S.A.

I've lived here for 58 years. The eastern half is very nice. Lots of hills, rivers and trees. The western half is flat and pretty dry.

Back at the time that the tribes were resettled here, all of the man-made lakes we have now did not exist, and oil had not yet been discovered.

It was not real nice for those people at that time.

If you ever find yourself in the Oklahoma City area with nothing to do, go visit the First Americans museum. It is only about a year old. I toured it back in December. It tells the story of the NAs who inhabit Oklahoma now. Where they came from. How they got there. What their life was like after they got here.

It is told from their perspective, so obviously slanted, but still very interesting. I learned some things that we were never taught in school.

I've probably done more research on Native Americans than anybody you've ever met. How do you think they settled territorial disputes? Tens of millions of them inhabited North America before the first white man ever stepped foot here, they conquered each others land with force, the same as every other group of humans that ever existed. That's just the way it is, bleeding about it doesn't change a damn thing


Your best?

This black woman is tired of those who conquered the US.

This girl Lilly Gaddis is hilarious.

The conquered should stay conquered. Playing the welfare game after the fact rarely works. Except for us jews who got paid after the Holo since they probably put that money to work. The conquered need to assimilate or move on. It is an ugly process but we shouldn't act like we are that far removed from our caveman DNA
