A Few Facts About The Sainted Noble Savage

Fact — As a general rule, all captive males captured during internecine tribal warfare among American Indians were tortured for days until they died. Celebrations were planned around such events with entire villages gathered to watch and possibly participate in the ritual torture of captives.
Fact — The Aztecs practiced human sacrifice on a vast scale. Tens of thousands of people among their tribal enemies were ritually killed and turned into dinner. Solid evidence exists that this same etiquette was practiced by the Carib Indians, the Maya Indians, and the Inca Indians.

Fact — Land was “owned” collectively by a given tribe, but only as long as they controlled it through the killing of the other aboriginals who wandered onto their territory. Possession of land was 10/10ths of the law. Ownership thus was constantly in flux as one tribe drove out another.

Fact — The Sioux (or Lakota) claim that the Black Hills was stolen from them by the White man in the 1870’s. What the ignorant liberals don’t tell you is that the Sioux stole that land from the Blackfeet and the Arapahoe in the 1770s when they (Sioux) left Minnesota. In the same way, the Shawnee claim White people took Ohio and Indiana from them in the first decades of the 1800s. What you don’t know is that the Shawnee took it first from the Fox and the Sauk tribes. Just so the Comanche dispossessed the Apache from West Texas while the Apache chased away the Ute and Navaho in Southern New Mexico and Arizona. Just so the Assiniboine and the Nez Perce slaughtered the Shoshone in Montana and Idaho. Ownership of the land was a literal bloody mess.
Fact — When the first white men showed up in N. America in the 17th century there were at that time approximately 1 million Indians in America which averages out to 1 human being for every 3 square miles. Even the number of 1 million is disputed, some scholars arguing for a much lower number.

Fact — American Indians never owned the N. American land. They merely occupied it being largely a wandering nomadic people.

Fact — American Indians were what Thomas Jefferson referred to them as in the Declaration of Independence, to wit, “savages.” Most if not all the tribes of North America lived in a constant state of intermittent warfare among their neighboring Indian tribal “Brothers.” Starvation, raids for scarce food, and large-scale conflicts for revenge were commonplace.

And now on every Native American reservation the children are being preached Marxism as if that is supposed to help anyone. It is just another attempt by the left to make slaves out of the Native Americans. Democrats broke their spirits by forcing them on reservations and now they are preparing them for slavery to the government.

John Stossell did a special about that some years ago. Government first screwed them over with weapons then later did it again by using socialism.

Why is it that only the United States and possibly Canada are the only nations in all of the Americas that are accused of stealing the land of the natives. From Mexico's northern border all the way down to the southern most tip of Argentina, Europeans came and conquered all of that land as well.

Oh and BTW way the left needs to realize that there are a whole lot of those people living there that are NOT "brown people". The left seriously needs to stop referring to Hispanics as "brown people" because they aren't all brown.

Lol what do you want, raperations? My people came here to escape Mussolini, built a business and raised a family. Ironically, my heritage is comprised of just about everything, including native blood. This land and is my land, this land is your land, this land was made for you and me. And since we got off the boat, we've been hit with racism, discrimination, hate, and even chased with torches and pitchforks, nothing new, but you'll seldom hear us complain about it or seek raperations for it.

All that to say, I don't think you'd last as an immigrant :)

Europe sees you and raises you: After moving to a developed country (passing six or seven safe countries on the way to your preferred free hotel with all-inclusive!), you demand that the original inhabitants accept and "tolerate" your way of life, which created the hellhole you fled from.

And our liberals are just as tolerant of newcomers, and just as intolerant of political opposition, as yours. :-(

How come is it that liberals have a difficult time understanding the difference between immigrant and illegal immigrant.

Puritans and Catholics: *flee England to America, actually get along pretty well with the Natives, begin Thanksgiving tradition, largely want to peacefully live in this new country*

English and Dutch colonists in later years: *massively expand the footprint in America, tend to aggressively push back natives for huge tracts of land*

Puritans and Catholics when they're lumped in with the latter group all these years later: *shocked Pikachu face*

Thank God for Columbus
By Jeremy Egerer

At the time Columbus discovered the New World , the great difference between the main Mexica god and the European God was that the European God would kill you for not being good, and the Mexica god would kill you for not being bad.

Even when we had mischievous gods, we were better than the Mexica, the most dominant tribe of the Aztecs. Going all the way back to the Romans, God might throw an army under the bus because a general broke his word, and the Jews, the Muslims, and the Christians all believed that God is better than us — which is why He warred with us constantly. Huitzilopochtli, the main god of the Mexica, had no such benevolence to fall back upon. You fed him, or he would wipe you out. And the way that you fed him (and other lesser deities) was by flaying people, or burning them alive, or cutting out their hearts. Sometimes two of the three. I'm told that some priests even took the human skin and wore it, like Leatherface in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

Things had been this way for a long time before the Spaniards arrived. By the time whites got to America, the Mexica religion had already reached its worst. Decades of bloody imperialism had brought the Mexica to the top. A few years of heavy snows and crop failures had brought the empire to the brink. They cranked up the sacrifices to a level nobody had ever seen before, perhaps in the history of the whole world — ten thousand in a single festival, circa 1450. Unfortunately, right after they did, the weather got better again. This reinforced the already murderous mindset of the Aztecs, and they went ravaging the countryside for people to loot, rape, flay, and burn.

T.R. Fehrenbach says in Fire and Blood, his history of Mexico, that estimates of victims after this "miracle" range from the tens to the hundreds of thousands. At one point, the capital, Tenochtitlán, became so covered in blood that diseases easily broke out, and its lake, which was already on the verge of toxicity, became filthy, putrid, and dangerous.

These are not the first Europeans to reach the American continent, but they are the first to record their achievement. Columbus believes that he has reached the East Indies. Greeted by friendly inhabitants of San Salvador, he therefore describes them as Indians - an inaccurate name which has remained attached to the aboriginal peoples of the whole American continent. By the same token this region becomes known to Europe as the West Indies.
