@joonte1010 Um. Hey I just want you to know that where my people settled we never argued with the Native Americans. We bred into each other. Europeans judge America very hard. It is a very large place just like Europe and the regions do not always have much in common.

@joonte1010 no need to argue with you. your agressive attitude shows that you're guilty and trying to hide something about your brutal, inhuman, barbarian history.

[joonte1010]

There have never been any findings of massgraves or shit like that, Its all lies made up to make people feel more sorry for this so called "native" people of Scandinavia. They should instead be grateful to live here, If they would have lived anywhere else they most certainly would have been exterminated but here the Kings of old left them in peace, They didnt even collect taxes from them. And today they have alot of freedom unlike miniorites in other places in the world..

@atimetowork Fuck you, You American piece of shit. Your colonist ancestors exterminated the Native Americans and THEY were native to America. The Samis however are not native to Scandinavia accourding to latest Archaeological proofs. They arrived 2000 years AFTER the ancestors of todays Swedes and Norwegians came in Southern Scandinavia.

Its easy for Foreigners to point finger and accuse people but did you live back then and saw that with your own eyes? The samis are a bunch of liers.

@atimetowork My crime? you're assuming I'm from the Norwegian government and was alive and active during the oppression of Saami people? I'm an uh-mur-ikan from the late 20th century, the worst thing I ever did to humanity is get your mother preggo with you! I'm simply saying that the Sami don't whine for hours about how hard shit was, because they are tough as fucking nails and don't give a fuck.

I like her eyes.  Sami are very exotic looking.

@VALsacount2 Don't whitewash the subject you fucker. This truth is your crime against humanity.

@atimetowork Saami don't bitch like other people.

@atimetowork Sápmi has a lot to offer, honestly I doubt Norway or Sweden (Not so much Finland as it was Swedish or Russian for a long time.) would have been what they became without exploiting us and the land.

But I agree, the only real mentions of violence I've heard of would be Alta or the Kautokeino uprisings. It's monstrous what my people had inflicted on them, really amazing we have a culture left at all.

@TheLifthrasir Thank you for response Juuso. This is so sad and so hard to understand. 'cause you've never been rebels, never armed against governments, never aimed divide the country. You've been alwas peaceful but again they did those terrible things to you. This is brutality. nothing more.
