We must preserve the elders knowledge so that we can teach the numunuu turetu, Comanche ways.also learn ourselves along with our children the ways that are being lost. For example; how to set up a tepee along with camp, how to make regalia(not just clicking complete purchase online).We can not go back to the old day, but carry them with us in our heats.Teaching the Comanche traditions is what we must do. Not only to few numunu, but also to the tosa taiboos.Doing so will be a good thing.

My grandfather was Comanche and very proud of it. I'm sad that my parents have ignored that part of our history. They have no interest in that past or the great people that he came from. I have very little Native American blood and I share no resemblance with my grandfather and his family (I took after my mother's Russian side) but I seem to be the one who cares most about his culture. I never learned the stories or the dances but I'm simply happy to learn and admire this beautiful culture.

i find Native American culture interesting, which is why I watched this video. I am from European descent, and it's become common for Euro descents to be to feel guilty for what our ancestors "did to the Native Americans". And, while there were certainly atrocities committed by the Europeans, I have always maintained that similar acts of violence were already being committed from one tribe to another. The Europeans were another warlike "tribe" (like the Comanche) that simply won in the end.

The Comanches attacked, murdered and raped my people from san agustin nuevo leon and la palmita nuevo leon your tribe can go fuck itself!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[treyslap]

the comache warrior was a sadistic soul for sure. They made it a habit to steal, rape, and pillage other villages whereas other Native American cultures preferred to stay to themselves. Also, it wasn't enough for the Comanche to kill their enemies....they would torture them EVERY time that they had the time.....standard protocol was to strip off pieces of skin until they bled to death. YIKES !!!

@deepdixie1 It is truly refreshing to know there are a few, like you, who are willing to live the noble life.

@batux100 The craziest comments on youtube seem to come from Turks it seems. Comanche is not what they called themselves, it was a name given to them by others. Didn't you watch this?

[worldpolicenow]

violence works - but those of us who live by the sword - well - you know the rest.

@batux100

Never mind that the name they have for themselves is Numunuh and not Comanche. lol fail.
