This is for Jessica H. "Your People" stole and murdered to get the land from someone else when "Your People" migrated here from over the Berring land bridge. If it was alright for "Your People" to do it, then why is it so bad that we did the same as you.
Oh!!!!! I get it. Do as we say, not as we do. Right?
Get a life.

There are two schools of thought regarding the migration into the north American continent. Those who believe the first migration across the Siberian Strait occurred 28,000 yrs ago and those who claim it happened 12,000 yrs ago. . .okay there are some who even think it was 48,000 yrs ago. What makes the real proof difficult is that there were two to three ice ages since 48,000 yrs. Glaciers have erased all evidence except since the last ice age 10 to 12,000 yrs ago. To date there are no older(12,000 yrs) artifacts found on either North or South American Continents. Those who came over the land bridge were all of Mongolian descent and they did not displace any other populations. It was not a mass migration but rather clans or groups following animal herds, settling down till the next 'pioneers' passed them by looking for new hunting territory up ahead. Their migratory process was much like what occurred with the European immigration from east coast to the west. The next group of 'foreign' immigrants after the Bering crossing went into South America about 4,500 to 5,000 yrs ago. There is evidence on the Santa Elena Peninsula in Ecuador of either Chinese or Japanese influence in ceramics found. The Valdivia culture left behind ceramics with Oriental motives, additionally there is no evidence of ceramic development, it appears that it was spontaneously introduced. The next known contacts were those of Scandinavians at present day New Foundland and also those of Irish Monks who made the passage in leather boats about 12 to 1300 AD. Last but not least there are theories about African contact with South American east coast. Many sculptures and pottery from the Maya, Peruvian and Ecuadorian cultures depict the typical 'Africano' features. . .all dated Pre-Colombian. If you were refering to the Spanish who came and murdered the original inhabitants, I will concur with you, they had no equals in what they did to the Natives of the Americas. . .all in the name of their God. Not only did they murder, they erased history by burning the Maya Codexes and melting the gold, silver and platinum artifacts of the Native Americans.

all humans are ruthless and greedy when they need to be. no race can really claim moral superiority if you look back through history far enough. all you can base it on is how enlightened you claim to be now.
