Ever been through anything remotely similar?

Probably not. Therefore you aren't really qualified to judge her.

Did you consider that the people of that time chose to honor her? They did not view her as a savage, even though they knew full well what she had done, in fact they considered her a hero.

Have you? If not, what qualifies you to judge her conduct as anything other than savage?

The Indians who murdered her child were probably honored by their people at the time as well. So? Savagery is savagery - approval from the people around you doesn't make barbaric conduct ok.
