115,000,000 million Indians killed? If they had that many, they would have wiped us out.

He has worked on a number of political campaigns and most recently was a team staging leader for the Obama campaign.


This explains it.

Your point is spot on.

One question that I've continually asked, but have yet to receive a satisfactory answer on, is where are all of the physical remains?

115,000,000 is a lot of skeletons. Given that these "atrocities" were only "committed" a couple of hundred years ago (if at all), the "evidence" has not had much time to decay.

Where are the corpora delicti?

There are a number of researchers concerning the Indian population north of the Rio Grande, pre-European settlement who arrive at a total of around two-three million for that whole, gigantic area. The reason being many Indians were either nomadic, hunter-gatherers who didn't cultivate the huge tracts of land necessary to build a large population or simply lived in areas where large populations were impossible due to the lack of resources to maintain one...like the Southwest.

Modern revisionists, without any proof, claim that there were many more millions. To which people concerned with the truth might ask: where are the remains of the big cities which are typical signs of large populations? Where are the cemeteries with the bodies of millions of ex-inhabitants? They don't exist.

Only in the fevered imaginations of western civilization-hating leftist academics who want to maintain the myth of the peaceful with nature/non-violent Indian who was ruthlessly exterminated by typical, racist Europeans. The truth is neither side were angels in the matter. But again, leftists simply lie abut virtually everything.

Yes, their land use would have never supported that population. In fact, many of the Plains Indians were descendants of eastern tribes that were pushed westward; before Europeans arrived the plains weren’t teeming with Indians. The fact that they didn’t have horses until the European arrival puts to rest any idea that the buffalo hunting horsemen’s way of life was “thousands of years” old.

The theft of land is hard to excuse, though the natives themselves played a large role in the French & Indian Wars for control of upper North America; the French in particular would have been unable to fight without them (as their pool of settlers was much smaller).

Even in early skirmishes with settlers (pre-independence), the tribes themselves weren’t very large.

This has been proven, beyond a doubt, to be an outrageous falsehood.

It is an invention, pretty much a wet dream of liberals, who's only additional wish is that they were actually there so they could pass out "euthanasia" plague blankets to women and small children.

This was an estimate of what happened over the course of more than 400 years. Not say 4 or 5 years of final solution. However, as attrocious as it was, it’s not the same as what the nazis did. The Nazis’ mission wasn’t putting Jews on the reservation, it was to kill every last one.

See our numbers, from the latest sources, in “A Patriot’s History of the United States.” This is tripe.

Long before Columbus landed, okay he didn’t get to the mainland... the native population was reduced by war and disease amongst themselves. Their population had been reduced from - maybe that many - to much much much less. They may have gone from a more advanced state to one of pretty primitive in a matter of 2 or 3 generations.

THEN the “white man” came....
