11. So you don't give a damn about Native Americans either? Racism & genocide is just fine?

I can not believe this of you. OMG!

I really could be more shocked to see your attitude laid out with no qualms nor hesitation. Our historical brutality towards Native Americans (which is ongoing) is not an issue for you? You are fine glorifying someone guilty of both to an extreme level?!
