Read up on "The 7 Years War',
the French and Indian Wars,
and the wars against the Pequots in Connecticut,
the wars in Virginia, Kentucky, and you will see:
it is no sarcasm, the American Indians tried to wipe out the white settlers many times,
even at Plymouth Rock Miles Standish had to go hand to hand with a Chief over the lives of the settlers.
Standish won.

That is painting the Americian Indians with a broad brush, there were/are many tribes and the actions of one tribe are just that, it is not fair to say that it was all one sided or all Indians are the same (though many paid the price for the actions of others).
I will gladly read up on this issue to become better informed of our history.
