it's all sordid.... sure the folks that brought us the Inquisition were a particularly psychopathic bunch... but "los gringos" also murdered their way west with inpunity...

in reference to my last posting... I feel that this 29th paragraph in the document dated July 04th, 1776 set the tone for the displacement and ethnic cleansing that continued with new fervor

The 'he' being referred to is King George 111...

   "He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavored to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian Savages, whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions."


so much for Osama bin Pontiac...
