When having a discussion of Whites vs Indians it's important to go all the way back to the beginnings.
But two places that, conveniently, get left off the ledger when cataloging the crimes of the white man are the French and Indian War and The War of 1812.
In both cases Indians were hired or enticed to pick a side in the war.
In both cases, the Indians were not enticed by the winners.
Leaving their fate to be decided by the winners (or the side that still held the ground).
In both cases, they could have sat it out and escaped retribution.
But...
Wars have consequences after all.
