Please they didn't know violence till the white man came and killed the all!
Seriously? LOL!!
What do you think being a WARRIOR meant? You actually believe that they were all nice, sweet, peace-loving tribes before the arrival of the Europeans??
The Comanches, Apaches, Cheyenne and many others were all warriors, especially the first. They made war on each other LONG before whitey ever reached American shores.
They fought over territory. One tribe drove another tribe out in whatever location they wanted, and took it over.

Some people buy into the BS that the American Indian was an old school "hippie". Like you said: some of those AI's played rough, real rough back in the day.

your family still benefitted from the displacement and subjugation of native people, just like my black family eventually did. admit that many of us are living in places that indigenous people once walked freely.
your argument is similar to this; non native americans came over and took land and resources from native americans anyways, so why does it matter if people cross the border from latin American countries and do the same?
My family was displaced from Germany by greedy nobles and landlords that wouldn't allow them into the land ownership club. After being abused and taken advantage of for 500+ years, my family finally got fed up and moved to America for a new opportunity.
The Indians had the opportunity for 1000+ years and did nothing with it.
Latin Americans already enjoy the highest quotas for legal immigration into our country. No one is supposed to enter any country illegally in this modern day and age.

You forgot about raping their women & enslaving them. The indigenous loved them some slavery.
There should be no reason anyone in the US should celebrate Columbus...
