Killing Indians for Oil

Ive never yet met a person that was distraught over the Dakota Access pipeline that actually knew the issues and understood both sides of the story. When you expose people to the FACTS about the case, they either slink away or just plug their ears and keep repeating the same inane bull**** about the pipeline that they have been spoonfed.
 
Those poor Indians. If they cared so much about Mother Earth, they wouldn't have left (480) 30 yard dumpster of trash behind.

Not exactly, but they should learn about the selfishness of societies and how to rise above it. The future generations are the going to be the ones in control of the world in time, just like all generations coming and going.

Just like all generations coming and going. What is a going generation? Going is leaving. How is a leaving generation in control of the world "in the future"? In the future they are gone...

Oh, the "the" in the second sentence shouldn't be there. Just a misunderstanding, but you get my point. Technicalities aside.

I got the point the first time but that isn't as fun...

You just wanted an argument did you? Playing devil's advocate is only fun/fair when I get to do it. :/

Considering the pipeline runs right through their water table, after being rerouted away from Fargo's water table, I think they have a legit gripe.

Considering there are 7 existing pipelines that are already there in the exact same location AND the fact that their main watersource has already been rerouted, your argument is rather silly.

Today, we pretend to be much more civilized. We show up with court orders and such to push the Indians out of the way when a pipeline needs to be laid or money needs to be made. But, back in 1920, murder was the go-to method to get what you wanted.

I'm not sure we've evolved too far beyond that, but we probably think we have.

Faultless? How do you arrive at that?

No race brought closer to the brink of extinction. That's for sure.
 
Why in 5 pages has nobody bothered to note that the title of this thread is a lie?

Pure? Come on, so much mixing with the whites especially with the 5 civilized tribes.
Surely the finest war chief of all the nations was the halfbreed William Weatherford a.k.a.'Red Eagle'
the lum-chate who had the wear with all & girth of being to battle the US Army & Andrew Jackson
toe to toe until his quest for power & glory was ended forever at Horseshoe Bend!
