Oh yes, and made it a fine art!!

Actually you can trace it back to the Spanish. Spain did quite a bit of damage as it cut it's colonial swath through South, Central and North America.

It also got the natives to stop those charming practices like live human sacrifice with the ritual cutting of the hearts out. Yes, those Spanish, savages. V's wife.

Then how come most Latin Americans in Peru, Mexico, El Salvador, Guatemala, etc. of Amerindian or mixed ancestry. The average Mexican is racially more Indian than Spanish. If the Spaniards were so brutal, how come there are so few North Americans of American Indian heritage compared to Central and South America, in which most inhabitants (depending upon the country, of course) are either partly of 100% of Amerindian ancestry?
