How do you know you liked it? Were you there?

He looks cold. Get him a blanket.
superfinn
How!
SFCrawNik
I liked America before it was filled with overly sensitive kids.
ninaclark
Using sitting bull for attention when real natives can't even get clean drinking water on rez
luchie24
What is the Native American name for America?

Spambot.

Savage AF.
eekee
Absolutely ridiculous, but it made me giggle!
thegaardian
I liked humans before we walked upright.
Robstar2000
Yes, how terrible, now we have healthcare, public safety, education, charity, abundance of food etc.Lets whine about savages some more!
thegreatninjaman
yeah but we won in the end
doucher
Technically, Native Americans weren't native to the continent. So, even they were immigrants.
jackbos
The Native Americans had a bad immigration policy. They should have built a wall and made Europe pay for it.
oratoriotangram
So hipster
FreakyStylie
Anthony Kiedis has a tattoo of this guy
Cattrina
I sometimes wonder what the native people used to call the land?

I like how "there were other more terrible things/people (so it wasn't too bad)" kind of argument pops up in these kind of posts
zegerman5682
The original hipster.
MidlandRedux
Thank heaven Sitting Bull didn't live to see himself exploited by hipster guilt-mongers. Yeah, we get it, you hate the establishment.
IdiotMcNoobtard
So what you're saying is... you have reservations about this new country?

All about it. That joke sure was a gamble.
SpikeThruTheStreetRoof
I feel like an actual person of Native American heritage would never post this
ninaclark
We would not. Wearing it on at shirt to my white family thanks giving however is hilarious.
Thismuchistrue
Only white man would say that a place is not "settled" until they take over.

If it wasn't for the Mayflower you'd still be living in mud huts and eating dogs.

Should have fought harder then...

Should of fought smarter, not harder

Buffalo were starting to die out before we started hunting them.
brittolof
Interesting thought process right there
CatBlaster5000
I know what you were trying to say bro. +1
NoobOfEngland
Does this mean I can go kill pandas guilt free
IHateApostrophes
Might as well. Prude fuckers won't mate anyway.
PeaceWalker47
That's like saying "your house was already on fire before I poured gasoline on it"
CaptainArminius
Considering the Indians drove them off of cliffs in the thousands with no possible way to use all of them just for a couple hundred people.
Begotten
how come the disappearing native americans aren't used as a cautionary example against excessive immigration today?
hardytardigrade
Because the oppressive conquerors with superior weaponry are already in the places currently freaking out about immigration.
Begotten
really not the point. slowing native reproduction plus high immigration and high immigrant reproduction will have the same result.
hardytardigrade
As a war and genocide? Doubt it. Also, who are you calling "native", and when would immigrants have reproduced long enough to count as such?
PeaceWalker47
Because immigrants aren't landing on your shores with highly organized armies equipped with energy weapons?
Begotten
really not the point. slowing native reproduction plus high immigration and high immigrant reproduction will have the same result.
PeaceWalker47
Don't try to justify your xenephobia by comparing your "plight" to the atrocities you inflicted on the Native Americans.
PeaceWalker47
No, they won't. Slowing reproduction is hella different from being slaughtered by smallpox and technologically superior invaders.
Begotten
it isn't different in the end. either way, a people and culture disappear.
PeaceWalker47
rigid and unwilling to adapt. And frankly, you have no right to cry about disappearing cultures when Europeans spent the last 200 years
PeaceWalker47
wiping out one culture after another. Between Manifest Destiny, the Congo Free State, and the Holocaust, you have actual blood on your hands
PeaceWalker47
My God, grow up. Cultures change. You think European culture today is the same European culture 500 years ago? You disappear if you're
PeaceWalker47
I mean historically, European cultures tend to be nearly wiped out by other European cultures. Nazi Germany, the Thirty Years War,
Tyrannotron
Sitting Bull was born in 1831, well after America became America.
2012hyundaisonata
His part of America was up for debate
Cattrina
True, but for some reason we do not have any pictures from natives earlier than that, go figure XD
hiimhar
I grew up with two portraits of him in my house. For some reason his face is very comforting to me. And nostalgic
CommentsWithGandalf
Are we arguing over names, dates, crimes against other nations or semantics? Once we establish that then we can begin to nitpick.
Tyrannotron
Not arguing, simply stating a fact. You're free to do whatever you like with the information.
elahrairah
Came here to say anybody who has a photo taken of them was born after the continent was named.
SatansLeftNipple
You must be fun at parties.
Sordito
So there was nothing before it was called America?
matthewsavino1996
It was a nasty truck stop
Begotten
there was no country called the united states of america
ChazzDarvey
Thank you for being one of few people to read things....like books.
anthaneezy
I read books. Just not history. Rather live in scifi or fantasy books, than reading about Wounded Knee or the Alamo.
IFUCKEVERYTHING
Wut is books?
AnimeisCancer
something you've fucked
Dongblaster9000
It's like a kindle without a backlight. They even make fancy backlightless kindles for "college" that cost more than actual kindles.
TysonGoesOutside
Where was he born and was it considered part of America at the time?
Tyrannotron
The American continents were named as far back as the 1500s.
TysonGoesOutside
I was thinking the country not the continent but that's a fair point.
Tyrannotron
It is most commonly used to refer to the USA, so I can't blame you for thinking that first.
thegarlicawakens
There is no country called, America.
hardytardigrade
The country's not really named "America", it's the United States of America.
TysonGoesOutside
Yes, thank you.
SpecimenSpiff
I learned something today! I always thought the "U" stood for "ukulele"...
Tyrannotron
But even if we're talking USA, Sitting Bull was from the Dakotas, which were purchased from France in 1803 in the Louisiana Purchase.
TysonGoesOutside
Interesting.
