Default RE: A Tribute To The American Indian

The indians got screwed just like everyone else who had lost a war. When a country went to war and won they took the land as their own. History proved this true with few exceptions. One exception is the USA. Correct me if I'm wrong but excluding taking this land from the British and Indians, we have always returned our spoils of war land wise. Two world wars worth of victorys and we even rebuilt their economy before we gave it all back. The Brittish, French, Russians, and lets not forget the Germans all intended to take the land to start with.

I guess my point is that was all a long time ago and I nor my family had anything to do with killing the Indians or owned any slaves. I don't think we own them any money for what had happened to their people either. I do think we should all remember what has happened and learn about our country's history but it was all in a different time without Walmarts and gas stations, survival of the fittest!
