Will the USA now apologise to the Naitive Americans for the abuse against their Nations?

Question

Now that we have Obama and Biden, working class Americans fighting for truth and justice in the Whitehouse, and they will win, can we expect to hear a formal apology to the Native American peoples for the abuses perpetrated against them and their children in the processes of stealing their land? Not that the American Indians would lay claim to the land; they saw themsaelves as stewards of the land, not owners of it. That concept would have been totally alien to them.

Answer 1

Well, I'm mostly Black but I'm also part Cherokee and I'll tell you that the US will never apologize for anything they've done. The US doesn't apologize because they think what they did was right for the "Survival of Civilization".The viewed the natives as being only fit to serve whites.

Answer 2

For this to happen it may be essential that the book The American Genocide be put forth. What it will take is a campaign to draw attention to the fact it did occur and get official acknowledgement that such did occur. The UN has named it such I think.  A petition to The UN to name it such though centuries in the past may work.

The U.S. Congress was said to demand that The Armenian Genocide be called such so the same could occur for The U.S.A.  Neither Turkey or The U.S.A. has made such and apology for either to my knowledge.  Of course many campaigns to get such acknowledgement have been mounted. I think there is also a book called Genocide in The U.S.A.

Answer 3

Make absolutely no mistake but the greatest GENOCIDE in man's history has been the GENOCIDE of the Indigenous/Native Peoples.

With all due respect,The Holocaust was a "minor" genocide compared to the literally tens of millions of Indigenous peoples that have been genocided.

Why then when a day does not go by where some mention of the Holocaust in found in the media, is there little to no reminder of this genocide.

The reason of course is that this Genocide of tens of millions was done by us GOOD LITTLE CHRISTIANS  and we are the last people who want to be reminder of the fact that we GENOCIDED tens of millions of human beings of God's children ONLY because who they were just like Hitler genocided millions of Jews just because who they were.

Germany and the German people have and continue to this day long after most of the Germans who did the genociding are dead,are still paying RETRIBUTION /REPARATIONS .

To hold the Germans accountable the Neurenberg Trials were held.

No bloody "Neurenberg Trials were held to hold the good little Christians accountable and never has any REPRATIONS ever been payed to the Natives for our genociding them.

A lousy apology would be a pathetic monumentally inadequate price for us good little Christians to pay.

How do you apologize for these obscenities of good little Christians !!!!!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trail_of_Te...

Morally and ethically bankrupt individuals contend that because they personally were not responsible then they should not have to pay.

Of course in the case of the Holocaust and the Jews,millions of Germans born after WW11 are paying reparations to the Jews .

I quess the REDSKINS are just not worth anything save a string of beads .SICKENING !!!!!  

As the monumentally two faced hypocritical Christians we are ,we love to hold everyone else accountable for the genocides that they perpetrate but NEVER OURSELVES !!! SICKENING !!

I make no apology to anyone for this "rant" .

Answer 4

Been there, done that!  Time to go on to the next page!

Answer 5

What have you been smoking? When did Obama and Biden become working class Americans and I don't think my ancestors would give a d**n about an apology

Answer 6

Probably not.  

In light of uslayag and the comment about the British apologising to Native Americans, I did a little research (which he/she couldn`t be bothered to do) and came to the conclusion that the Americans, British, French and Native Americans are all as bad as one another when it comes to bloodshed regarding the early days of settlement in North America/Canada.

Just to throw something else in the pot, Native Americans were not granted dual nationality as US citizens until 1924 and were not allowed the vote until 1954.  You can factor that in where you will.

Should you wish to read about who did what and to whom, type in indian massacres into wikipedia(!) - this will list all "massacres" on all sides from 1500 to 1890 in the contents box.  Might not be a bad idea to read this before commenting, but that is entirely up to the individual.

Answer 7

Native American groups were fighting each other long before the Europeans arrived here.  They were not all peace-loving earth centered people; some wanted to take over anyone they encountered. Some took slaves and destroyed property/cultures of those different from them.  It was the survival of the fittest then and continued when Europeans  arrived,  

Answer 8

Americans are great at spouting about responsibility, but I doubt many will have the stomach to look squarely at this.

For me, apologies, words, mean little.  Something substantial and appropriate in deed.

Answer 9

I can't see anything changing now. Apologies are rarely given by nations and if an apology were given in this instance there are plenty of other cases in the world that need apologising for. Every nation has had it's dark side at some time in history. The good thing is that many have learnt and become a little more "civilised" as a result.

Answer 10

How?

For what?

When they were still primitive back in the past in those days before they even landed on the shore?

Why not ask the "Dirty old men" of tribe of own community with self lack of knowledge on how did they advance in time this far without them?

Will they be still living in the wild without them in time?

Luke 6.39-40,41-45,46-49

With their own misery in time.

Why not ask the "Dirty old men" of own community with self lack of knowledge on why did they self discriminate with unruly behaviour, self prides, self rudeness, self discrimination as people of different races of self racism with self lack of knowledge in own backyards?

Leviticus 4. 13, 22

With cheap-skate ghostly stories on tribe with non-existence rights of original desecendat as tribe of a Rudeness Tribe with self lack of knowledge?

Luke 3.7-9

What do you think?

Answer 11

You must be kidding, right! The white yanks hold all other minorities in their country in contempt and despise all those liberals that have made concessions to the indians, Blacks and Hispanics or Latinos. If they had their way, they would have the Kansas militias wipe them all out.

Answer 12

AFTER THEY APOLGISE FOR THE MURDER OF THE MORMONS !!!!!

Answer 13

Not from me.  We've been paying reparations to them since the 70s.  They can move on.  Not my problem.  Whine. whine. whine.

Will the British apologize to the Native Americans, you ignorant hypocrites?
