If you want to pretend they were a peaceful people living in teepees on the plains, earting one Buffalo at a time, and smoking peace pipes, then it is you that has a limited understanding of history, chief.
They were literally in the Stone Age.
You could not have this scene in a movie today.
It speaks the most true statement ever made in a movie. Way too politically incorrect for today's liberals.

I agree about the wheel but I guess any discussion going forward, if there is any, needs to be centered on your comment in grouping all of these people into one group (tipis/buffalo). Shows that you are ignorant and clueless to a big effin T. As said, I am conservative as hell but I and we don't need your ignorant view on things going forward. It just hurts the cause of folks with common sense who actually took and passed history in HS. And understood it. Again, I am a conservative and do not like the current state of things at all, but being ignorant to this and other issues only provides fuel to the other side. Don't need your help anyway - best thing you could do is STFU IMO.
