We call this "conquest" or "conquering" and it has been going on throughout history in all parts of the world. Sucks to suck but you should have done a better job defending your lands if you indeed wanted to keep them.
Well, the USA had one integrated Army. That helped. Had all tribes across the US come together don't you think it would have been a bit of a different story? They knew how to fight. They just weren't organized.
"Divide and conquer" is pretty much part and parcel with war and conquering throughout history. They didn't band together to defend it just like the Gauls couldn't against the Romans, just like the Byzantines and Persians couldn't against the Arabs, just like the Khoisan couldn't against the Bantu, just like the Eastern Slavs couldn't against the Mongols, and on and on and on and on.

Sumbitch! Wife and I had our trip to Mt. Rushmore for July 4th but pushed it back a week. Now I regret that decision.

Most historians who wrote about the plains tribes referred to them as Neolithic savages, until it became politically incorrect to do so in the mid twentieth century.

That thing has not changed since I visited as a kid in the early 80's.

Throughout history stronger more advanced civilizations have conquered weaker less advanced civilizations. Sorry that makes your pussy hurt.

Doubtful. By the time of the Indian Wars in the 1860s, the United States had the most powerful and technologically advanced army on the planet. And every single member of that force were battle-hardened veterans from fighting in the Civil War.

Do people that want to destroy every statue or anything like Mt Rushmore literally shite themselves when they see a picture of Rome?

Yes, throughout history horrible things have happened, but that does not make rape, murder, and the consistent reneging of treaties a-ok. If your children were murdered, your wife was raped, and you were forced out of your home your pussy would hurt just as much. You're amoral.

Absolutely no one is arguing this.

MT. Rushmore was carved naturally by nature. God carved it with his own hand. A miracle.
(I bet Trump believes that.)

"Mount Rushmore is a symbol of white supremacy, of structural racism that’s still alive and well in society today," said Nick Tilsen, a member of the Oglala Lakota tribe and the president of a local activist organization called NDN Collective. "It's an injustice to actively steal Indigenous people’s land then carve the white faces of the conquerors who committed genocide."

Do something about it, Shitting Duck.

He, and other useful idiots, may want to learn a little about the so called "Native Americans". They were savages and uncivilized for the most part. There were tribes that weren't, but they would have been destroyed by the savage tribes if it was all left to play out among them.

If you take President Jefferson Davis down for supporting slavery, then these should come down for supporting the subjugation of the Indians by force.

Lol, that won't happen in our lifetimes, they won't get anymore money from me at that place.
Mt Rushmore was pretty disappointing as well. I preferred exploring the national parks there than these two places.
