“We have zero resistance to this disease,” Mr Bourland said in an interview

Uhh...you mean just like the entire population consisting of those born after January 1972?

I am so sick of this stupid charge about diesease being spread by whites in blankets given to the Indians. In 1763 the pathoilogy of how disease was spread was just as much a mystery to whites as it was to Indians. What a stupid myth.

Native Americans were some of the first victims of what would today be called bio-terrorism.

Perhaps, but as with slavery, we were not alive then and cannot be blamed, nor should be expected to make any 'reparations'.
