Is there a point to this story?

What is the point to understanding history?

Focus on Minnesota.

Omar Mcgillicuddy (or whatever her name is) and Keith Ellison, just the latest muslim entrants into the invasion of American politics.

Just so happen to be on our northern border ...

Properly "protected" by the beseiged Canadian President Trudeau.

"Is there a point to this story?"

It's all about victimhood. Liberals can find a victim of those nasty white folks under every rock.

My great grandparents on both sides of the family settled just south of the Minnesota River, an area near the worst of the killing. All of the indians were most assuredly not removed and some returned for decades after. My grandfather chased one out of the chicken coup with a pitchfork when he was a wee lad.

A great deal of literary license along with a lot of folklore and outright lies in the article. Liberals never have enough victims after all, and the 1,000 to 2,000 mostly unarmed settlers who died in this conflict have ancestors and survivors who tell a very different tale. A good website if you are interested which gets right down to personal stories and family histories of the families who suffered and died at the hands of the criminals:

Give it time. Sooner or later someone will be along and will use it as an excuse to bash Lincoln.

PBS and the Star and Tribune paper in Minnesota always sides with the indians every anniversary. They do not emphasize the 1,000 people they killed. Kinda like they deserved to die attitude.
