Our ancestors used emminent domain to take the land from the Indians in the first place. Only THEN it was called Manifest Destiny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only THEN it was called Manifest Destiny. 517388[/snapback] Nothing was taken from the Indians, they were conquered. Historically, that's called TOUGH SCHIT. If they Chinese invaded right now and took over the US, do you think in 300 years they'll be giving land to the Smith and Jones tribes from New Jersey so that they can build a casino?

Possibly, a couple new missile silos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoachChuckDickerson Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 Actually, more North American Indians (I REFUSE to call them Native Americans) died of disease than died violent deaths. 517678[/snapback] Agreed. Genocide, especically at the hands of Americans, should just be dusted under the carpet. Nope, never happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hong Kong seriously spoiled me. That, and suckling pig and duck. I can't pronounce the Cantonese word on the board in English, but I was known as "The Duck Man" around Causeway Bay. About 100 different ways to do duck. Almost a spiritual experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
