..honey, this is in every US high school history book.. the American Imperialists are proud of killing Native Americans... this ain't no secret or tin foil hat issue. This is what white men are all about... deal with it. (by the way, you might wanna read the original 4th amendment to the US Constitution, and you might wanna take your lotrimim before you do so)

Sort of like how the Japanese killed off the Ainu? :)Unfortunatley, humanity tends to kill off people perceived to be as others. Suffice to say that there were atrocities committed on both sides and the issues are far from being resolved. The Ghost Dance is still being performed in remote areas and some Native Americans believe that the fulfillment of the Ghost Dance Prophecy is nigh and that the coming war will initiate it. Not so sure of it myself.

the typhoid,yellow fever,typhus, & TB infected blankets were ALSO given to CSA POWs by the damnyankee army from 1863-66. the WAR CRIMINALS had learned just how well it worked on the American Indian.
to quote one damnyankee WAR CRIMINAL, a LTC, : "it was cheaper to kill them than to feed them!"
