I wondered why we cheered as the young actors for the character like John Wayne, Randolph Scott, Buster Crabb, Roy Rogers, Tex Ritter and many others who came to save the settlers. Uscalled out the cavalry with their trumpets, while riding to save the day. They have saved the fort, women and children, the city-folk, and saved the flock to the movies every Saturday and Sunday and on television.
They also killed and massacred the Indians ... The Indians ... The real Americans ... have (the original Homeland Security) has been the fight against terrorism 1492 You, the good, killed hundreds of thousands in the name of posterity and the improvement of the whiteAmerica ... and we applauded.

We were told that Bill Pickett and Meade Willis (remember Lonesome Dove?) Were white, as they are known for real black ... and we believed them. Have you ever films and television shows, where Army troops and trains to use scouts, who were always white? Did you stop and wonder how these white pioneers have to know the situation of the country?

People said things like - "she's not Indian, just do not want black because it directs people and wants to diaperto be like whites. "We have many claim belongs to the children of the Cherokee, Seminole and blacks Feet are many of us do not believe it ... guess what I've got news for you we were wrong .. -.?.
