Don't get me wrong, our treatment of the Native Americans is one of the few things that can get me pissed off, but just about everybody in every country on Earth is probably living on stolen land that they acquired by killing/forcing out/conquering someone else. So, while the actions of my ancestors might have been despicable they were in no way out of character as far as the rest of humanity is concerned and attributing that kind of thing to white people or Anglo-Saxons alone isn't logical. I know you were joking, but I just felt like saying that.

that's the pure and honest truth.

I have no idea how anyone survived very long back in those days, seriously.
