I know you!

@17thknight BTW The FBI and US Marshals don't accept Racists. You're clearly racist. And for your next trick how can you explain away slavery? You obviously are being taught from the wrong books and are not capable of formulating your own thoughts. Other authors you should read, Derrick Jensen, Daniel Quinn and John Zerzan. Do yourself a favor and walk off the bible college campus and into the real world. We are living in the 6th extinction, thanks to your culture.

@17thknight As far as Dominant culture making contact, I guess we need to put you into the equation as I'm sure to you White makes right. So a Fictional group of settlers comes to your country. You think it's going to be a mutually reciprocating relationship. But wait you're attacked cause you have what they want, forced into reservations that are many times not your birth place, the reservations are cut up further as there are more resources that the dominant culture needs. Wear those shoes Pig

@17thknight Are you just upset because you wont be getting into the FBI with your faulty logic? You're reading pop history. I'm sorry you believe everything you read, where is your PHD from pops do it yourself college for imbeciles? You obviously are some sort of racist as you cant stay far from your right wing playbook. Puffing your chest with what you've studied but not able to deliver. So you've read "the World Without Us"? Where are you finding the pop Science silliness proof?

@jeremyserwer The closest thing you could find, anywhere, to a "planned" or "genocidal" view towards natives was the Spanish Conquistadors, most particularly Pizarro and Cortes. In the end, the primary use of the natives by the Spanish, however, was slave labor on large plantations.
-
@jeremyserwer The only "historical revision" is the childish "genocide" nonsensical argument that the historically illiterate bandy about because it's somehow politically correct to do so. It's a MYTH. One that you, seemingly, perpetuate based on no knowledge whatsoever. The World Without Us is pop-science silliness, and has nothing to do with history.

@jeremyserwer Wrong, child. I am a HISTORIAN. A dominant culture didn't invade, it made contact. That was all that was necessary for the systemic destruction of native peoples. And yes, you said "What disease did natives spread to Europeans." The answer, my historically illiterate friend, is SYPHILIS. That was the most significant pathological exchange, though others are likely but unprovable as recognition of pathogens was still in its infancy in the 15th century.

@17thknight You're a college student, not a historian. Have you read the Peoples History of the United States? Dont be a historical revisionist like Fox news. I mentioned nothing of syphilis. I think the main argument here is a dominant culture invaded and went to war by any means necessary against a native culture that is far more in tune with nature. The dominant culture dominates nature and is not interested in co existence. If you're a student please read "The World Without Us" period.

@jeremyserwer This wasn't "biological warfare". It was simply incidental deaths as a restul of first contact. The "blankets with small pox" is a MYTH, you numbnut. One officer SUGGESTED it one time. It did not actually happen, though.
If you seriously doubt my numbers, then you literally know nothing about history. Nothing.
-
@jeremyserwer Furthermore, the simple fact that you presuppose this was "biological warfare" shows how significantly biased you are. Yes, "biological warfare" (as you ineptly put it) existed at those times, but people had only the faintest inkling of the communicability of disease, as someone who has studied the history of the Knights of St. John/Hospitallers (like me) can tell you. It certainly was still barely known in the 15th century.
I fell down the stairs when I was drunk.

She never came to my school either, although I don't see why she would, we live on an Indian reservation, where we're viewed as "savages".
