Likewise they were renowned for their skill with weapons to the point that the longest hits ever recorded with longrifles ( for whom the weapon was likely originally designed) were made by Indians.

How many White guys caught mustangs by running them down on foot or went out with edged weapons to picks fights with grizzlys?

The idea of the noble savage, whether in It’s original form, or transformed to fit modern beta bullshidt arguments is just that. Bullshidt.


Untwist thy knickers, who said anything about “noble savages” ?


Lolol. Ah yes, the scary Indian. Surely no “white man” put any fear into the tribes? Surely that was never documented?

Every swinging Richard who went west took it in stride. And they brought their families to boot. You “White guys” had been taming horses for centuries before they got turned loose here. I’m sure it was done incorrectly by white puzzies before the red man showed them how to do it right?

There’s nothing special about the Indians. They there folks doing what it took to survive till they came in contact with a more advanced bunch of folks

And to sell short the pioneers like you have is borderline criminal.

But then again, you thing African immigrants are crime free and here to boost the American dream for all.
