Pequot Mystic Massacre Presentation Using Age Of Empires III

[qap614]

I think it is disgusting. We as a people will realize someday that we lost the true meaning of life when we massacred the native people..Our endless need for advanced technology has ruined a continent in 400 years that they managed to co-exist with for over 12,000.They natives were naive and indolent savages in the minds of people who beheaded and and threw people to lions and bears for sport. There life of living off the land with none of the b.s we as humans deal with everyday now was living.

How did they sleep at night and live with themselves after all of that. That is something Charles Manson and his Cohorts would do. Im sure they have a special place in Hell for doing this to innocents.

We are bipedal primates. As heinous as this looks to us, and as much as humans hate to admit it, we were designed to be violent and nasty to one another. Nature designed us this way. We are also designed with the ability to look at this as being "wrong" but make no mistake about the fact that we're naturally ordained to be this way to one another.

@subsamadhi Lol.. speak for yourself.

@MrJayadeva108 I wouldn't do it. I'm just pointing out a simple fact. Neither would you. Those were different times and different circumstances. Obviously, you couldn't just walk into a neighborhood and burn it down and kill all of the inhabitants today.

No. Their place is in Heaven. This was a right given to them by god, to cleanse the world of these savage people who did not bow to their god.

A lot of parallels to the modern world here. of course not say i bleive it was right.

That is correct. At 2:53 you can see Captain John Mason entering the fort. He then (after being assaulted by arrows from the Pequot) ordered his men to set the fort on fire and they retreated to the outside and waited for the fort to burn. This caused all the inhabitants to run out of the exits to escape the flames wherein they were slaughtered. I have a presentation I give while the video is playing. I'll have to post the transcript.

Not completely accurate. The British troops entered the settlement, they didn't siege it.
