So a seal proudly featuring an Indian warrior is now anti-Indian?

The current state seal features the hand of English militia leader Myles Standish gripping a saber over the head of a Native American as if he’s poised to strike the indigenous person. Standish attacked multiple Native American settlements in the 1600s. Latin motto “Ense petit placidam sub libertate quietem” outlines the seal. The motto roughly translates to: “By the sword we seek peace, but peace only under liberty.”
