No. I was referring to the one immediately after the civil war where the military leaders waged an open campaign of genocide against entire groups of native peoples. The one you refer to did not involve that, only land-grabbing and relocation with compensation, not genocide. Sherman and many other union "heroes", flush with "victory", were sent west after the civil war and they wasted no time in staining Old Glory with the blood of genocidal conduct. Sherman et al were the proto-Nazis of their time, no doubt. Golly, according to the "logic" of many posters on here, that means the US Flag should be banned. Glad I'm smart enough to understand that there's a bigger picture involved. Think about it before you answer, you might grow a bit.
