This is the moral dilemma that I think about because much of my family is Quapaw Inidan. I have also been studying the atrocities this young nation committed against the native Americans in the name of Manifest Destiny and such.

Simply look at the hypocrisy involved from less than a hundred years ago. We used to revel in our cultural difference and this land was a melting pot. Now it's all about "this land is OURS...get the **** out unless you are invited you FOREIGNER! I don't give a **** what we did to those who were here before us, it's ours now and we make the rules!"

Brutal, but the reality of the situation. I don't agree with it.
