See what happens when the locals allow illegal immigrants to enter the country at will? The immigrants will invariably act like an invasive species and wipe the locals off the map.
It kind of helps if the immigrants have the help of superior technology, numbers, organization, weapons, transport, communications and biological warfare.
Oh, and they were white, that’s the argument that will convince most of the people on MCS.
first of all, you could make this .gif for any piece of land on earth. people have been taking land from other people for thousands of years, and not just these people. to be completely honest, you need about 1/3 of this .gif to end up owned by Ted Turner. but it only goes to just before 1900.
speaking as a person who researches land ownership for a living, and specifically land in Oklahoma, formerly Indian Territory, I can assure you that quite a lot of land is still owned by the indians. in the first couple of decades of the 1900’s, in Oklahoma, the enrolled indians were given 160 acres of land EACH. and the land was restricted, meaning that said land could not be sold or leased without court approval. even if Joe Indian wants to sell his whole 160 tract to anyone, the deed is not legal unless it is approved. even today, if a person has 1/2 or more indian blood, then their land is still restricted.
i’m not saying that the native americans didnt get buttfucked in the deal, but i am saying this .gif is fully retarded and wrong. also, most native americans are regular americans and aren’t herded onto reservations to be taken care of by the gubmint.
It’s always been disputed – but most agree and estimate that somewhere between fifty and eighty million Native Americans were killed during Europe’s illegal invasion of America.
I found it interesting that the last time I was in Washington DC there was a holocaust memorial for the 6 +/- million European Jews wiped out in the second great war and yet, ironically, there’s nothing of any holocaust memorial acknowledging the fifty to eighty million Native Americans slaughtered right there in America.
I believe it is time, that the US government be pressed to create or build some type of memorial and/or national great cultural and learning centre in Washington DC (or somewhere) to these, for the most part, great nations that were all but wiped out.
Sorry, I took that top paragraph from an American concise history of American Natives … I really should know better than quoting American historians on anything. My fail for trusting an American. I’m laughing just as hard.
The whole concept of ownership was alien to them.
The idea that they “claimed” these lands is hilarious, that’s a very modern state of affairs.
Kind of hard to claim something you haven’t mapped, marked out and defended.
What bothers me the most is this insanity that you can be “born to the Land” and sit on your duff for your whole life while the rest of us toil for our daily sustenance.

That is one narrow perspective of America.
I don’t think you got the point.
I don’t think you had one.
Do you want me to explain it to you, Dalek?
If you can’t comprehend something you really should just say “I don’t understand” instead of going the circuitous route.
this is a retarded concept.

They didn’t need all that land. They were land hogs. Share the land!
Small pox is a hell of a disease.
Native americans, as opposed to the ones who think they’re irish LOL
If they want their land back then we should get our beads back. What? You don’t have the beads any more? Then fuckoff, gas huffer.
hahaha
Good point!
Change can sometimes be bitch, can’t it?
That’s what they get for Pearl Harbour.
