I agree both sides committed atrocities. And I never said natives were peaceful either. BUT THEY were the original occupiers of this region. Then the lands got taken over. By not just "whites" dude. Spaniards came here and did the same shit. Spaniards...also having a "white" Jesus. Wasn't just the Brits.
A country is defined by its borders. With no government, constant strife between tribes and no borders, they were not a country.
They were people living in an admittedly beautiful time where they did not have to pay taxes on land or get permission to live on land, cut down trees to build their homes, etc.
But neither side were the "good guys" or the "bad guys". Both sides were just various shades of gray, and one side lost. But rather than being totally genocided, they were graced with honor.
The Spaniards, the British, they were all different degrees of problems.
But every country has been won through bloodshed, sweat and tears.
I refuse to be conquered and put on my knees in front of a Sharia Law court.
I did not invade another country and assert my religion over others, as they have been attempting to do here, as they have done in other countries as well.
Also, not sure if you've ever heard about Christian missionaries, but that might be something you'd like to read up on.
