My response to the first bolded sentence is simple, it's really convenient how that law didn't exist when you came here and stole this land 500 years ago, isn't it? Turnabout is always fair play , to the fair minded. To the second bolded sentence, It is respecting the rights of the individual to shoot them 15 times in the back for a broken taillight because they are not white? Is it respecting the rights of the individual to rape them as a child and say it's ok because they're just animals anyway? I think you mean WHITE individuals. You have some interesting views on right and wrong, lets leave it at that. |

Yes, when you point out the fact that by their own laws and their own constitution we legally own 87 percent of north America makes them very nervous. The US constitution states that a legally ratified treaty supersedes all other state and federal laws, in plain terms. This is why Indians have fought and died for the Constitution in every major war despite being exempt from draft, the hope that someday it will be implemented. |

There were two primary reasons why the Indians were displaced. The biggest factor was 9/10s of their numbers being decimated by diseases the whites brought here. It had nothing to do with superior technology, Indians had firearms and horses within HOURS after the whites appeared here with them and very often had superior weaponry, and it wasn't smarter warriors either. Ask General Custer. The other primary reason was they were MORE civilized than the whites, and instead of just killing them and burning their ships when they first showed up, they welcomed them , made room for them as equals, and helped them gain a foothold. The idea that whites were more civilized is insane, they were the most lawless race on earth. |

By the time the Spaniards got there the civilizations that SUPPOSEDLY engaged in those practices had collapsed due to a change in climate and agricultural failure, they were long gone. Quite relying on hollywood for history. According to my own research there were in fact ritual killings of captured enemy combatants given that choice , but they involved a much different scenario than portrayed by Mel Gibson. Remember at the end of "Appocalypto" when the Spanish ships showed up, and the man escaping the sacrifice saw them? BULLSHIT. Total bullshit. That was a full 500 years after the collapse of the civilization |

But how does that compare with burning them at the stake or some of the torture devices used on "heretics", like for instance drawing and quartering,pulling them apart with horses or impaling them in the asshole with a huge metal object? When we killed people it was usually because we figured they needed killing, we had a good reason. For instance a person who murdered a child was usually given a punishment that fit the crime. How does that compare to some of the evil machinations going on in Europe at the same time period, for such crimes as daring to read a bible, deny the pope was god, or denying the earth was the center of the universe? Some advanced civilization. |
