Title by right of conquest is as valid as any title to land anywhere.

You fought wars against a bigger tribe and you lost, get over it.
Was this decision made at the Casino?
Have they considered that the Illegal aliens have no guilt regarding American Indians and the repercussions that may arise from that lack of guilt?
Amnesty? For what?
The Indians are a conquered people. They should give thanks that they weren’t wiped out.
How idiotic.
If there were ever any illegal white immigrants, it was way back in the early history of the US. As for me and my family, we are generations into the American experience so we are not illegal.
To quote our half white leader “we won”.
Native Americans ain’t native, they’re Asians who moved to America.
I don’t think any immigration laws were broken at the time!
O.K.
You can have all the land back. Now give us back the TVs, penicillin, anesthesia, plumbing, electricity, indoor flush toilettes, etc, etc. and we will be on our way.
Jerk. I was born here. That makes me a native American. So was my father and my father’s father.
We got any of those smallpox blankets left?
Satire, correct? ;-)

And just how do we know they were the “first” Americans?
Wanna bet somewhere in their history it was someone else’s land?
Just shows what happens if you don’t have good immigration enforcement
Nope. The whites conquered it fair and square. In some places through force and others peacefully but assertively
Made a great country out of it, too. A better one
Is there anyone more stinking racist than people who think they aren't racist because they come up with such simple-minded ideas?
I'm an American, but I can never be President of the United States. I wasn't born in the United States. I was born in the District of Columbia, blessed by a paternal surname of obscure German origin, traced back to a ship that brought that particular set of ancestors to these shores in 1732.
Does that make me a German? Certainly not a British subject, however, even if that was before Independence, but certainly English since the set of surnames two flights behind me are all from that neck of the woods.
And since my grandfather, one of those handing me one of those English surnames, was half Creek, which almost certainly makes me part Indian and at least in part "descendant of slavery," one might say (though most of my ancestors had a more colorful description, something about a "woodshed.").
Only an Indian or an Anglo saddled with the weakest since of their own history could come up with this Junior High kind of nonsense.
Being an American in the 21st Century, I think I'll be very realistic and just pardon my own self, thank you very much.
Who did the Nez Pierce tribe STEAL the land from?...
let them apologize first..
