umm, no... they were nearly wiped out by European colonists, mostly BRITS.

Wrong. Europeans arrived hundreds of years before and became Americans. With American Independence in 1776.

The mass slaughter and land grab was mainly in the nineteenth century and committed by Americans.

wrong. Americans were the ones being slaughtered, Europeans were the ones doing the slaughtering.

So by your logic. Americans today are not Americans.:laugh:

are brits still romans? or germans or french or all the places they originally came from?

obviously it's different now. america wasn't america yet during that slaughter, look at a map of that time, most of america was unexplored, so it wasn't America the country it is today. just like most of the countries of euro have changed their borders and governments in the past 250 years.

Or all from African descent! Pedantry can be never ending!

1776 all became Americans.

America didn't have 50 states in 1776.

What? the mass slaughter was in the nineteenth century. When was Independence. And it was called it even before 1776.

You are wrong.

no i'm not, i said the last 250 years, and before that it definitely wasn't america, so what are you talking about?

And still not listening. The mass slaughter was in the nineteenth century when it was called - Guess what? America or USA if you prefer.

you're not listening, where a lot of that slaughter took place was not america yet. it was the wild west, unexplored territory being explored by european settlers. vast areas of what is now America was Spanish at the time.

What does that have to do with the price of eggs?

because you can't blame america for what happened on land that wasn't American at the time.

Of course it was America. And new arrivals had to declare allegiance and became Americans.

Gees. That is South America now and the Conquistadors. New goal posts.
