Point of history:
There was a race to settle the west between France, Spain, Britain, and even Russia.
if the US hadn't claimed that land another European country would have. Spain had already claimed most of the south west and west coast (and floor-e-da).
They were over-extended and couldn't afford to keep it, so they bailed and mexico sort of inherited the southwest by default, and did nothing with it for 30 years before we took over.
But we have bleeding hearts and racists that claim we stole that land from mexico. Bullsheet.

If those other countries had claimed most of the US, do you think they would spend tens of billions every year to support a race of people who do nothing to support themselves? Except build casinos of course.

Now before anyone jumps in with something they imagined or made up, let's have a show of hands.
How many bleeding hearts have spent time actually trying to help an indian tribe? How many have lived on a reservation?

I have.

Our church gathered materials and went to the Apache reservation in arid-zona to build a schoolhouse.
I was there for 6 days and saw how they live. Disgustingly lazy people. They care about nothing except squandering the gifts they are given.
The gumbint builds them houses, which they destroy.
We build them towns, which they trash. We put in plumbing, which they tear up and sell for firewater. We buy them new pick-up trucks, which they get trunk and total. And the gubmint replaces them so they can do it again.
Don't believe me? go to the Arizona apache reservation and check out their junk yard. Hundreds and hundreds of totaled trucks, most of them with less than 20,000 miles. Just sitting out in there rusting away.


Within a year of completion they had trashed the schoolhouse we built until it was no longer habitable. Within two years they had burned it down.

Some folks in our church tried to organize another build, but every single person who had spent time on that reservation refused to participate.
You can't help someone who doesn't want help and doesn't want to help themselves.

in comparison ,we built a similar schoolhouse in Mexico. The people there were extremely grateful and are taking care of it and being responsible.
I would have no problem going back there to help those people more. We still have programs to gather shoes, clothes, and eyeglasses etc to donate to that little town.

The bleeding hearts are responsible for the plight of the indians.
When you give people everything they have they lose the will to work. They are now social slaves and the more the bleeding hearts try to make excuses for them and give them, the worse it will get.
What they need it a hand up and a kick in the pants, not a hand out or excuse.

Our country has spent more money over the past 150 years supporting these people than all the things we supposedly "stole" were worth.

Don't bring reality into the situation....you will get some people upset.

The liberals like to beatify blacks, indians, and anyone else they get a guilt trip about. Most of these same liberals have never set foot in any areas controlled by the groups they think so highly of.
