I’m from New York State, and I want reparations from the Mohawks, Senecas, Iriquis, and Tuscaroras for raping, mutilating, murdering, and scalping thousands of men, women, and children and accepting payment from the British for it during and after the Revolutionary War. They burned the farms and fields all across the central and western pioneers, from which my family came. Time for them to call it quits and feel very lucky if they aren’t penalized for the violence of their ancestors, who didn’t see themselves accountable to anyone but their tribe elders.

I’d say Europeans did enough to call it even :)

I dont lose sleep over it but comparing what they did to other to what was done to them is a reach.

People fight wars and one side wins.

The Indians lost the war that decided control of a good portion of a continent.

No reparations of course but but I don’t think it was the indians that started the fightin :)
