Stone age white boys are so far the oldest remains found in North America.

At the end of the day, who cares, everyone should have the same rights without some having handouts others don’t. Indian reservations are the worst of it. They weren’t here first, it’s crappy they were conquered, but at the same time it wasn’t all sunshine and roses with them. It was actually the opposite. Everyone needs to be treated equally under the law and that’s the end of it.

Don't be surprised if the Chi-Comms start to
make claims to the Aleutian Islands and Alaska.
I think it's what their drive to be a player in
the Arctic region with the USA and Russia is all about.

Yeah, I know it sounds quite farfetched but with the
current weakness of the USA and it's government the
Chi-Comms probably see no drawbacks to putting forth
a ridiculous claim. They even mumbled something
about Vladivostok, Russia belonging to them.

Territory belongs to whomever has the will to take the territory and then kill or dissuade by threat of slaughter, anybody else who tries. This is a fundamental truth of human existence.

The U.S. is already ceding the southern border.

Nonsense! Everyone knows the first people were Vikings arriving on Oak Island! Wait... that’s Canada. Wait.... It wasn’t Canada THEN! It was “THE NEW WORLD”. Canada, USA, not born yet.

And then the Templars! All BEFORE Columbus and any Chinese slaves.

Here’s another article that discusses claims of pre-Columbian settlement of America. In particular, it discusses some of the flaws in the 1417 Chinese map that was being relied upon for this show.

Where are the ancient skeletal remains of anybody resembling Chinese on American shores (North or South)?

Remember all of hysteria to conceal Kennewick Man when it was clear that his remains were caucasian and predated "Native Americans"?

Adding to your comment recall Hernando de Soto's march through the Southeast where mound cities were discovered that had vast populations of Native Americans.

Two hundred years later when French explorers ventured into those same areas there was no one to be found.

This is an old theory based on the NW Native Americans looking like they have Chinese ancestry and the stories about how Chinese junks were sent east from China with orders to explore and were never heard from again. The theory is that they made it to the Pacific NW and for one reason or another never went back. There is no proof because you would think that SOME remnant of their culture would remain in the form of a word or art or weaponry.

This is just the beginning. China will soon make territorial claims in north America.

Everybody before Columbus ‘encountered’ the Americas (North/Central/South) as they left no lasting effect from their encounter!

Columbus and his successors ‘discovered’ the Americas as they retained and explored the continuous contact!

While millions of the America’s indigenous peoples died from both the conquest AND the subsequent diseases, the death toll PALES in comparison to Genghis Khan and The Mongol Invasions of the 12th-15th Centuries (including Timur as a successor). Their purposeful conquests were on the par with the Great Plagues in death counts!

The Chinese had the same diseases the Europeans had. If they where the first to map North American continent should they be blamed for the deaths of millions of Native Indians who did not have immunity?

The Chinese play the same game as the Muslim leaders. If we ever controlled a piece of land it is ours in perpetuity even if we don’t rule it anymore.

So?

Regardless of who may have been first, after Columbus it stayed “discovered”.

So, we don’t owe native americans anything? Cool! Shut down the casinos and smoke shops. And rescind all special hunting and fishing privileges.

Thanks for that.

Perhaps Kirk Monro got it wrong. he believed the prefix tala was “little” and Talaloco meant little palm or palmetto

A theme in the Flamingo Feather is criminal or out casts from the tribe. They outcasts gathered and became the Seminoles
