Didn't realize it was controversial to be opposed to the murder and abuse of women. JFC, the comments in this thread.

Non-American, could anyone elaborate on the "merciless Indian savage" from the DOI?

Not many indigenous cultures fair well after colonization, I'm of Maori descent in New Zealand/Aotearoa and even it's been maybe a few hundred years since and Maori are consistently the highest population in prison, the most likely to not complete high school, teen pregnancy and most sad of all killing our own tamariki/taonga children/treasure. The Aborigines next door in Australia are even more worse off.
