May it been fabricated, it serves Joe Sixpack's prejudice. Stammtischgefasel! Your entire argument is based on two assumptions: 1) The Clovis people came across an ice bridge and populated North and South America, and 2) You can't steal from animals. There is very strong evidence that the Clovis people were not the first in North America. Some put the date of first inhabitants at 40-50,000 years ago. Do your homework before posting PA's. Can't steal from animals? Uh, excuse me...humans are animals. But, for the sake of argument, let's exclude humans. Yes, you can steal from animals. Humans have taken over and destroyed wildlife habitat to the point of driving many species extinct. What worse case of stealing can you imagine than total annihilation of that which possesses what you want?HAMMER: Originally employed as a weapon of war, the hammer nowadays is used as a kind of divining rod to locate the most expensive parts adjacent the object we are trying to hit.

The conquering of America was nothing short of genocide and theft. And prior to 1776 it was done by the Brits in the East and the Spanish in the West. It seems like history is filled with similiar stories of one empire conquering another. Were the Native Americans anymore kind or compassionate, or honest in their warfare against the Whites? I really doubt that they were. Didn't they also rape and plunder, and murder. It's interesting how the loser is protrayed as being all good, trustworthy, and wonderful when that might not have been the case at all. I have been to trainings where a Native American will go on and on telling stories of boarding schools where most all of the Catholic priests and nuns were raping and abusing all of the poor Indian children. I agree that the boarding schools did a lot of harm to many generations, but was it really as awful as everyone seems to say. Wasn't there any good that came out of them. Many Native Americans willingly gave their children to the boarding schools, to keep them from starving to death. They weren't all forcibly placed there by the Whites, as so many Native Americans want to say..... Then there is the story of how the White's gave blankets contaminated with small pox to the various tribes to use, and how these blankets killed off hundreds of Native Americans....yet the fact is Small Pox can not be transferred that way. A lady recently told me that there was no mental illness by the Native Americans in times gone by....that this was something brought into their culture by the Whites. I often hear about how cowardly Custard was....but isn't it a fact he was decorated for heroism including the Civil War. I would just like to get an accurate account of what really happened in history, and not just some fabricated, emotional appeal, that is far from the truth....
