What you stole by force of arms can be taken away from you by force of arms.
Stealing from a thief is not a crime.

Force of arms, yes, but disease was the largest factor. Territory has been fought over since arguably the beginning of time with the conflict between Neanderthals and homeosapians. America was not created until 1776, so it's interesting that you only concern yourself with one aspect, since this territory phenomenon occurs world-wide. Wars are most often fought for territory, this is not new. I find it interesting that you didn't provide your country of origin, because it's likely that you're people have done the same. Are you Mexican? If so I need not remind you of the fact that Mexicans fought Native Americans for land, in fact the Mexican government paid $50 for a male, $25 for a female and $10 for a child's scalp. (1879, David Schooley)
You're reasoning was wrong from the get go, take for example your statement about stealing. "Stealing from a thief is not a crime" What would happened if one of your family members was murdered. Would it not be murder for you to turn around and murder the offender? The answer? Yes, it's still murder and yes you will still be tried and convicted (assuming there is enough evidence that you committed the crime)

Native American Indians were here first and people from other countries came to their country and attacked their people, killed them, raped their women and took away their land. Sounds a bit like Hitler trying to take over the world...
As to justice today, why are we tolerating anyone who is here illegally by today's laws. There is absolutely no reason why the Native American Indians should have to remain on reservations to receive the same benefits as the rest of the US citizens.
Instead of illegal aliens receiving the benefits, these benefits should be going to the original Native Americans' families to help better their lives for the injustice done to them. They should be the ones receiving free education and a real job to bring them up to the same standards that the rest of the legal citizens are entitled to and earn through hard work.
America needs to learn to be generous with their own country and their own people first before they give to other countries. Illegal aliens need to be deported immediately and stop stealing from America!!! This is a crime!
America needs to remove all public officials from office who tolerate crime and do nothing to stop it!!! It starts at the top and trickles down - just like in corrupt businesses.

Read your history:
Something about the treaty of Guadalupe-Hidalgo, signed February 2, 1848 between Mexico and the US. and the Gadsden Purchase, where we paid for the land.
NOT ALL: "The US land..."
If you feel that Mexico should not be held to the treaty, then pick up a gun and start shooting "Greeengos!"
I am sure that our legal system has a place for you.
Also, THE DARKS (MEXICANS) STOLE THE US LAND FROM THE SPANIARDS!
How do you answer to this Senior!? Mexicans gained "Independence" from Spain. They celebrate El cinqo de Mayo" every year. THEY Mexico Stole the land by force of arms! Damn revisionist historian Mex.
Oh, lastly, you Mexicans celebrate "Independence" from Spain, but you are DEPENDENT upon us "Greengos" in America for MONEY to raise your Anchor baby women here and your litter of kids back in Ole, Mexico!.

Well, the world frowns on land wars at this point (granted every country including yours initially got their land the same way). Note we didn't keep territory in our wars since WWI.
However, are you suggesting you have the force of arms to do the trick?

Kensai is a racist, and I had to use my full-blooded native savagery and flag him. It's amazing how what was once the most beautiful and unspoiled land on Earth can be referred to as "barren wasteland". No one can live on barren wasteland. *rolls eyes*
Kevin A. - your answer is why when multitudes of non-natives claim "part-Cherokee", the claim is more and more meaningless and doubtful.
Anyway to the asker - Yes the land was conquered. The conquerors are dead, my ancestors killed many. The majority of Americans are not descendants of those conquerors. If illegals want to purge the land of whites, who will they work for? I can tell you right now that no native tribe in the U.S. will surrender their land to the second wave of invaders, come take it. Any illegals that bear arms against Americans will be fighting people of all races. I am fully armed and ready.

Not only does your statement not make sense but it is irrelevant. It would only apply if there was some group that could take land from the USA. Since that isn't the case...so what?
Fact is land has always been taken by force of arms or the threat of that since the beginning of time. White men in the USA didn't' invent this method, you might want to read up on some world history first next time.

Hatred is not the solution...The Government of USA has already apologised to the American Indians..but done nothing else they promised to.The trail of tears is now declared historical.
But what is sad is the lack of awareness and sensitivity of the present generation when they scream 'immigrants'!!
Like one said 'get over it'...don't worry ...tell the ones who scream..one day your future generations will also get over the 'now' immigrants!!

The "whites" which I am. Took this land by force of arms yes, but is their any 1 country that could take it by force of arms? And what your proposing is if I were to be your neighbor in the US is that I could walk into your house with a weapon and push you out because I had more force. This is wrong even though we did it at the start.
