This is what happens when US History is taught. They are changing History as they see it in our schools. Our History has bad thing in it but you can't change it. It happened and it's History. I blame our schools for most part for not teaching true History in schools. And not just this part but all parts of American History.

Our History has bad thing in it

what bad things? Our Country is here today because of what our ancestors did. If not for the Indian wars we would not be America. If not for slavery we would not be a strong union. If not for the Mexican War we would not have 25% of America. What they did was right at the time. Would you rather our Ancestors didn't kill the buffalo? Maybe it would be a good thing to have millions of 2000lb animals stampeding across our highways, farms and homes. Maybe we should not have conquered the Sioux and Apache nations and then we could have let the Mexicans or French do it. One of them would have if not us. the Indian nations were less technological advance and if not us then some other country would have conquered them Then instead of having a secure Continental USA we would have and still have countless wars fought in this land. How about slavery? Should we not have brought slaves over the sea. If not for slavery in the US and the civil war that it caused slavery may still be legal in the world. It was the end of slavery in the USA and the USA's influence in the next century that caused slavery to be almost wiped out in the world today. What other country in the history of the world can say to have done this? Slavery was the norm in the world for thousands of years before the USA said enough. So what bad things were done in our history. If we as a country did not do all of those things the world we know would not exist.
