I'm not denying that. Does that makes the professors comments accurate? Do you think we should give up Thanksgiving? Is Thanksgiving a celebration of the murder of Indians?

Have only been to a couple of indian casinos. Both are on I-40. One is the Sky City Casino at Acoma, New Mexico and the other is the Fire Lake Casino just east of OKlahoma City. Enjoyed both of them and neither seemed to have any problem with taking my $20 bills as both took a lot of them, but that's ok I thoroughly enjoyed myself. My wife and I have stopped at both these casinos several times. I liked them. The one in New Mexico serves some soup called possole that is hot as a firecracker and very good. I may have to try to figure out how to make that stuff.

yeah, they don't all have an issue with the $20. there's far more to the story, but isn't there always? andy knew that other countries liked to stoke the fires between the native americans and the people immigrating. jackson did what he did to protect settlers. but it's a lot easier to just call the guy a murderer than to question his motives.....

I think I can see why some might view him as a murderer considering that the indians of the South East were removed from their land and dispossesed of that land and forcibly moved West of the Mississippi resulting in the deaths of 5,000 of them on the "trail of tears." But having said that, at least the land west of the Mississippi wasn't so horrible. Some of that land that indians live on further west is hardly fit for rattlesnakes and scorpions.
