[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 2976578, member: 24302"] Most of it came through accidentally introducing disease. If you look at Mexico 30% of the population is pure indigenous. Large native populations in South America, particularly in the Andes. And the Spanish were harder on native populations than anyone. There were racist bastards in the U.S. bent on killing Native Americans of course. But we sure are a funny people genocide wise, what with making treaties and setting aside reservations. Yes I know all about our history with treaties. But rather than genocide, it was war, and many tribes fought whites tooth and nail. Rather than just kill them all whites made peace. Ask why there are few indigenous in Argentina today. They actually sought to kill them all down there. The world is a complicated place with many exceptions to the rule. Everything that's gone on in this country has gone on elsewhere. And not just by whites killing poor defenseless people of color. There was a time when people of color were riding roughshod over Europe. Numerous times actually. And over each other in every corner of Earth. But that's not the narrative some want to push today.
