If you want to talk about the 17th century, why not say so? I can't believe that those nasty white men did a thing like that to those disease ridden Indians.
Actually, i refuse to agree with you people who want to use racism as the reason we overran those Indians.
What the hell? When did I say it was racism.
You should really slow down. You're fighting to much, and causing a lack of logical thinking because of it. Slow down, I enjoy good debate. Often, you have some. But I never said white Europeans were racist.
What happened is someone asked for what kind of benefits that latinos and those of middle eastern decent contributed to America and the world. I was answering that question by showing the various scientific advances from both of these peoples. Then he said "I guess those indians weren't so advanced, because they couldn't beat us"
I was simply providing a view that that poster may not have been aware of, that Indians were largely destroyed due to disease, not European direct influence. There were some that gave Small Pox blankets to Indians, but for the most part it was just natural contact between two races that had been separated by many thousands of years.
this is an old article. the op is trolling, and once again people fall for it.
I checked this thing with Google and according to Google it was posted on August 10, 2010. Is that 4 years old? The Glorious Leader has sped things up more than I thought.
More Americans getting what the cowards deserve ,imo.
Where are the American people allowing this to go on ?
Americans are being shoved and pushed around all over their nation by invaders who can't stand them or the nation that feeds them . I'm just glad I'm old ,I may die in this strange land of fools, but I won't have to live in it very long . And if some have their way I won't live at all .
Somewhere out there is a Muslim gripping a big rock with "Pappy&Me" etched into it.

I know this is a long time ago, and your bigotry will find a way to kill my argument, but didn't the muslims invent algebra, the concept of zero and helped preserve much of western knowledge while we felt our way through the dark ages? Just sayin'. The architecture and art is another cool thing. I kind of like muslim art.

Oh, and falafel. Yum!
Who really kept western records during the Dark Ages? I am not a Catholic and don't really stick for the monasteries the period but those old boys did labor hard keeping that knowledge alive.
Yes, the Muslims did much but I think that we would have been able to know most of that stuff if they hadn't taken part at all.
Too much of that math stuff came from a period before Mohammed made his first Hegira in 622. Egyptians did all those things that allowed the pyramids and use of the Nile to flood those desert areas. I really don't know just how much of that stuff was done before Muslims but some, if not a lot, was done before they let any of it go.
I agree that they have done many things that we have used to advantage but most of it was done long ago and passed down. I wonder just how much they contributed to Israeli nuclear knowledge since Iran is the most forward of their nations and they had to have help to develop their nuclear abilities.
"Sharia Law" is not valid in the U.S., so to say that Minnesota is "under attack" is quite a stretch.
If someone is breaking Minnesota laws, that's what matters.
Give another year or two and you will be "shariaized"
