Fact is back in the day Natives were savages, settlers from the east,Europe and Canada were murdered in their sleep because a tribe of 500 natives figured they owned 5000 sq miles of land. they started the american indian wars and caused their own removal from the lands because of violence against the innocent.

It must be the only time in history someone lost a war and gets paid for doing so.
Wow. This isn't even close to what happened. I can't even begin to explain where you're wrong because everything in this post is so fundamentally out to lunch. Right from the concept of land ownership before Europeans arrived to...well...everything else. You really need to go out and do some learning about these things in a way that you won't get on a message board.
