I was born on the continent of North America. I'm a Native American. But I'm not a First American.

Please provide a credible link that proves that human beings developed separately in North America at the same time Human Beings developed in Africa.

Most "Native Americans" are actually Siberian-Americans that crossed the land bridge between Russia and Alaska during the last ice age. These immigrants also proceeded to drive a lot of species of animals to extinction by over hunting.

It sucks that the First American got treated the way they did, but the current generation had no part in that. Sins of the father.....

I don't believe anyone was making that point. My only point was that some people who are descendants of Europeans gloat about "their" conquest of the Americas and act as if they have some inalienable and ordinated right to this land. I beg to differ.

They conquered the land not a country.

They do, it's called "to the victor goes the spoils". Those natives didn't have any right to it either. All they had to do was win the war and they would have gained that right until the next war is fought and lost.

The so-called Native Indians that were indigenous to THIS country are all full flegged U.S. citizens so what should we ask them about a past that is long gone and that neither they or us played a role in? It's only whimpering Mexicans that are complaining about so-called stolen land and their tribal ancestors didn't even settle within the U.S. borders.

All U.S. citizens that were born here do have an inalienable right to this land. Someone needs to get their head out of past.

Of course you do. We came here bought it from the french and spanish,then built it into a civilized nation where most could live in relative peace. While the inhabitants were busy killing each other and every animal in sight we were cutting out forest for homes and factories.

Indians and most other so called natives did'nt own land because they thought it was a sin against mother nature,so we took nobodys land,except of course accordign to them 'mother natures'.

Know your history not what the indoctrinators told you,but real history.

Besides whats it to you? I don't know of any indians named ' Lucario' and I know lots of indians.My best friend for 55 yr.s is half cherokee.

Blacks are already wising up to this ploy of using slavery to get amnesty,now yall want to use indians too?.

Well I hate to tell the indians yall were killing the heck out of them too long before we came here and made something out of this wilderness that was America.
