I’m sure we can take comfort in reflecting that the Jews who died in boxcars on their way to the death camps aren’t victims of genocide, since they only died from forced relocation under cruel conditions, and not direct killing.

Genocide is committed also by systematic destruction of a culture. Read up on the Indian Removal Act, which was federal law. Cowboys and Indians is a kid’s game. Grow up.

Well, troll, you don’t seem able to find this policy of extermination of the Indian by the United States, and bringing up death camps and Jews and Nazis doesn’t cut it.

If we had a policy of genocide and were trying to eliminate the race, what mass murder methods were we using, and why would we be giving them their own reservations, and when did we change the genocide policy?

I would also like to know the results of the genocide, how many Indians do you think the United States government executed?
