The Native Americans inhabited North America long before the whites came over and in time, murdered and slaughtered them.

Does this mean we relinquish our country?

That’s how I read it.

It seems to me that indigenous means that you claim your culture originated on the land... my ancestors came from Ireland in the 1930. I don’t behave or speak like those in Ireland do — I’m indigenous to Indiana.

Besides, the original Clovis culture died when North America was hit by a comet 12,900 years ago... Everyone here is an immigrant.

The Indians were murdering and slaughtering each other long before the white man came to the Americas.

Maybe we should give the whole planet to the descendants of Adam and Eve.

You move out and the Sa'ami move in. Oh, and those Indians? They move out too. Fur shur 14,000 years has precedence over a mere 9,500 years!

Just leave a light on eh. And if that guy comes around saying he owns it all because he put a copralite on deposit, call the cops. I fur shur don't want stuff messed up.

I read a few years ago that some Indians in Washington state had found a burial grounds with the oldest known remains of a human there.

They started a campaign to designate the area Indian land, but when the results of scientific examination of the remains was completed it turned out that the remains were Caucasian, not so called “Native American”

That put a damper on their land grab, and the story was buried.
