Let me think - that's a hard one - umm, umm, umm. I think every native
American was innocent until the white man came and began robbing them, then killing them. Do you suggest that when the American Indian began to fight back they stopped being innocent and then as a whole became guilty and worthy of extermination? Genocide in today's parlance. The Indians were here first. They had no effective weapons, and the new settlers out-numbered them 1000 to 1. They lost the land. It's called "conquest." They'll get over it. My people did. Yours probably did, too. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination"

The white man didn't do anything the indians weren't already doing to each other for thousands of years. We were just better at it. Quite so, and after the white man came, theft of property was strictly the domain of common criminals or the IRS.
