Boy is this out of context. The sorts of punishments mentioned here were actually somewhat mild for this time period.
Anyone know what the "peaceful" natives used to do with prisoners captured in war?

The Carib invaders of Hispaniola and other Carribean islands usually killed all the men and kept the women. It is suspected they hate the children.
The Spanish were a bunch of limpwrited liberal deviationists compared to the locals.

"Punishments included cutting off people's ears and noses"
Only 20 years before George Burns was born, one of our biggest disagreements with the Apaches was that we insisted they quit cutting off womens noses for cheating.
