Maybe now there is enough land, but not in the past. Wars have been fought over land for thousands of years and Anglo Americans clearly didn't have a monopoly on land grabs or brutality toward local inhabitants. Look at the Greeks, Romans, Huns, Turks, Aztecs, Celts, etc. in their histories of invading weaker peoples. The suppression of Native Americans was a horrible thing, but I think some people harp on it, to make themselves feel better about their wars on native peoples in their countries.

I think there was and is enough land for all. But the european americans didn´t want to share the land. They gave the worst, most dry or swamp land to the indians.

@Stevenoodlesgrunow PS. I obviously wouldn't like your coming here and then setting up a country, but would try to prevent it. Read your history, invasions happen and governments change. Some of my ancestors have been in America for thousands of years and others for only for a few hundred. Everyone is from somewhere else and people were pushed out to make a home. Indians moved out Indians, Mexico kicked out Indians and Texans defeated Mexico. The harsh reality is- defend your land or lose it.

Everone is a racist to some degree and especially in previous centuries, but how was Rip Ford a murderer? I don't recall that he was ever charged or convicted with such a crime. He was clearly a fighter and a killer, who believed he was justified in defending his home in the same manner as the Comanche. Many killers are honored in American and world history in books, websites, museums, statues, city names, etc., etc., but that doesn't mean that you have to like them.

I think there must be made some differentation. Some Rangers were murderers, others not. But it´s a shame that a racist and murderer like John r.i.p. Ford is still honoured in the Texas Ranger Hall of Fame. And by the way, how would you like it if i would migrate into the US, and then suddenly start my own country there? Would you like that? That´s what Texans did in Mexico. MExicans were there before and more than that, native americans were there before!

Exposing an obnoxious ranter and hater as a cigar store Indian sure brings about a bit of silence. I'm sure it won't last. : D
By the way MrChaos. You've proved yourself a bit of a phony. In your droning, sometimes nonsensical video you say you're only "part Indian". I'm assuming that's why you fail to show your face in the pro-Indian/ anti-Anglo rants. In the obscured vid you look like just another sad, middle-aged, chain-smoking, bald Anglo that's mad at the world. I've met many full Indians, but never a bald one. My Indian connections seem deeper than yours, so your no longer worth my time. I also hate fakes! Bye.

Y'all don't know much about the Texas Rangers. A little about the history of the Rangers: Founded in 1823 by Stephen F. Austin. They are still in service today as peace officers under the Texas Dept of Public Safety. They are the pride of Texas Law Enforcement and set the tone for the model peace officer. They have come more of a investigation unit then the days of old. There are still Cattle Rangers who are Special Rangers who are paid by the Cattle Association and there is only 50 of them.
