10/23/18 Thought #4?


History is Written By The Victors


-Winston Churchill

This is stuff I never thought about, but now that I am older and more suspicious I can't help but think of things where the other side had something to say about things.  The Indians, here on North America, whereupon the "white man" came and took the land.  It seemed easy, but was it?  If the Indians ran with the buffalo, they were not tied down to the land like we are.  The fights were not fair at all if the "white man" had guns and the Indians had arrows, and then the white man had diseases which the Indians didn't know about, like smallpox, bubonic plague, influenza, and countless others which the Indians had never seen so they did not have internal resistance to them and thousands of Indians died with these epidemics.
