My father is full blooded, and let me assure you on his behalf, the genocide is ongoing. Get over it? Well how about honoring the treaties instead of being whiteman givers?
Nevermind, I know you don't have that ability, I just want you to recognize that the land there north of Denver was illegally stolen through genocide despite the treaties, as you know you can't trust the government.
It's not over, and in the past. Native people who lived in Colorado long before the spanish arrived are still living there. They still are discriminated against by law enforcement and ignorant people who were lied to by historians. Again, the sand creek massacre and the like were carried out despite treaties, and the treaties which are considered to be the supreme law of the land are not being obeyed. Can't trust the government. But let's pretend you are a good citizen, do you ignore the supreme law of the land? or are you a good law abiding citizen?
Never mind that.
Just do your part to learn about the facts. I can tell you are a person who is interested in being well informed. The treaties were violated. There is an role for citizens to end the land theft and genocide. If only they can face the fact that we are still being killed.
No one is forcing the citizens to continue to violate the treaties, it's just cowards justify further genocide and land theft.
Come to terms with these words, this is all stolen land. The doctrine of discovery is shit for justification of genocide.
As far as shit ins go, I still say there have been five hundred years of shit ins.
Also I'd like to tell you that you have my respect. You responded quite well in the wake of my intentional assholishness. Well done. ;) That is what I was hoping for and pleasantly surprised you did it.
EDIT: Though I now realized this was not a response to me. You didn't respond to my asshole comment. ;)
And who did the native Americans steal it from, huh? Probably people less advanced than themselves. You are the one that needs to get over it, as you sit and stew in sublime hypocrisy living with all the comforts of life and technology brought to you by the same white people that you call invaders and espouse hatred for. If the Chinese or some other more advanced civilization had gotten here first, you would not be here to voice your gripes today because they would have simply slaughtered all of your ancestors or taken them as slaves and certainly not allowed them to have familes.
When present day oppression is justified and modern day genocide is ignored, the people who are responsible will likely continue those behaviors rather than be accountable for them.
I understand you don't want to be accountable for halting genocide. Just remember, you chose to ignore the treaties. You chose to obey unjust laws. The option to be a good person is yours. But my guess is that instead of choosing righteousness you will perpetuate injustice. Because you refuse to learn from the past.
No one is committing genocide in the US today so just stop it. You want to see genocide, look at what is going on in South Africa, Rwanda, etc. You are inflaming hostility for no reason. I didn't make any treaty with you. I didn't kill anyone and I'm not the one being hateful and racist here. You are. If you wonder why you perceive others as having an attitude towards you, perhaps you should look in the mirror and try to tone down your hostility towards an entire group of people who have literally done nothing to wrong you, yet you treat as if they have.
