Actually you had superior technology and superior numbers. They fought for their land and were slaughtered. Truces were signed and each time they were broken but white people. If i attacked your house and forced you out would you say thats ok because your a coward and couldnt fight me off?

Without any real offense, I happen to be of mixed origin, IE: Native, German, and Scot. I suspect Hundreds of millions of us on the planet are.
I also suspect that as an AMERICAN, you've never gone hungry, or had extreme prejudice forced down your throat, or been displaced from your home, often murdered, disregarded, and relegated to a life of disgrace, and degradation in sooooo many cases.
"ANGRY AMERICAN" I suggest you have no right to be angry at all, with regard to issues related to Native AMERICANS!!!
Cowards? Hmmmm I suggest you've never "stood up" to anything they did and still endure. I also suggest you probably couldn't. Beyond that FOUGHT isn't exactly accurate. The Native population, from wherever they originated, wanted no more and NO LESS than what they had for centuries, until Others came along, deciding they NEEDED all this more than those who were here first.
I hope you evolve and mature enough in your lifetime to learn tolerance, acceptance, self respect, The Golden Rule,,,etc.

Obviously you don't know any Native Americans. If you talked with that stupidity around them, they would teach you a lesson in the laws of respect. They were never cowards! You are ignorant. They fought until they were almost exterminated from the face of the earth! I hate people like you who disrespect the people most worthy of respect. I don't know who you think you are but you are stupid. I do know that. Whites did steal their land and killed almost all of them and then stole their children and placed them in boarding schools where they were forced to "be white". They were called apples by the other Natives back on the reservation because they were red on the outside and "white" on the inside.
You're welcome for the much needed education. Imbecile.

Do you call what the white man did to these Indians a fair fight, The Indians had spears,arrows,and hatchets. The white man brought weapons like cannons,rifles, and the gatlin gun. White man took over the land they didn't win it in a fair fight. Damn boy you need to go back to school and study your history a little more, white man brought disease that killed off Indian tribes. white man killed off the only source the Indians had of surviving winters (Buffalo) and you call them cowards.
Let me put it to you this way if you and your arien nations brothers were sitting around the house giving each other head like Ya'll are known for, and about a 1000 Mexicans pulled up and started killing you off one by one, would you call it fair.? No you would be pissed because you didnt get to finish blowing your buddy.

The point here is that if the Europeans didn't take America from the Indians, the Mexicans surely would. Look at how many people live here now - and how many indians lived here then. If they want to take our country now, they sure would have taken it from the Indians then.
The difference is there are no other people left from when the Mexican ancestors took over. Here we still have Indians. If they took over, do you think there would be any Indians today?

Say what you want but, I'm in the camp that says let the Indians alone. They are the one group that nearly has no say in gov't. If it wasn't for the casino's they'd have no voice at all.
You are wrong about them being cowards, They were warriors.
The only reason we won was because of our superior weapons, and the fact that we starved them to death. With our industrial revolution.
Give the Red man a break from your Red neck please thank you.

If you look at the map, big chunks of the US are native land anyway.
And honestly they got their tribal lands by fighting with others, anyway.
But, if you know US history, you have to feel like there had to have been a better way.
I don't think every gravesite needs to be returned to the appropraite tribe, but I can't see why we can't do something for them.

You brought diseases with you which the Natives had no Immunity against, You made treaties with them which were promptly broken at your convenience, You murdered women and children like animals, All because they did not let the pilgrims who washed up on their shores freeze and starve during their first winter.
But it's all good because Karma is coming full circle, other "immigrants" are doing the same to you and you are fast becoming the minority with no rights, Deal with it.
