WHERE DID THE WHITE MAN GO WRONG?

Indian Chief "Two Eagles" was asked by a white U.S. Government official, "You have observed the white man for 90 years. You've seen his wars and his technological advances. You've seen his progress, and the damage he's done."

The Chief nodded in agreement.

The official continued, "Considering all these events, in your opinion, where did the white man go wrong?"

The Chief stared at the government official for over a minute and then calmly replied:

"When white man find land, Indians running it, no taxes, no debt, plenty buffalo, plenty beaver, clean water.

Women did all the work, Medicine man free. Indian man spends all day hunting and fishing; all night having sex."

Then the chief leaned back and smiled "Only white man dumb enough to think he could improve system like that."

Chief forgot about the part where he cut the hearts out of folks, then cut there heads off for sacrifice. Child Rape (sex for the natives), good stuff. Starvation for the masses. Mass genocides and atrocitites committed by one tribe to another. I'm sure i forgot a few things, but takes you rose colored glasses off before reminising about the good ole days.

J Dawg, that sounds vaguely familiar. Oh yeah, it was the pilgrims showing their gratitude to the indians for saving their miserable lives. They chopped the head of Massasoit off and put it on display on their gate post.

Mass genocide committed by the U.S. Cavalry upon the Dakota people led by Big Foot as they tried to make their way to Pine Ridge.

Starvation of the masses committed upon the Apache people by the U.S. Cavalry as they tried to remove them from their lands, all because they would not give up Geronimo. Let's not forget the massacre at Sand Creek. Or those that lost their lives on the Trail of Tears.

Child rape? Name the tribe and the instance. French fur trappers were infamous when it came to rape of women and children.

Cut the hearts out of folks? What folks? White folks?

the white man went wrong when he decided to mass produce cotton before he thought how it would be harvested.

Good lord, even I took this as a joke. Some people just can't let the past go and learn from it. Good thing Indians aren't as thin skinned as others.
