Yes. Funny how liberals who advocate "giving the land back to the Indians" never seem to start with their own property. That would be easy, after all. They could just sign over the deed. There's no law against it. I can't imagine that anyone would try to stop them. But they don't want to give away their own property. They want to give away someone else's property.

Just like, I heard a lecture once by a college administrator in which he said that he only had his job because of white privilege, and so we need affirmative action to give minorities a chance. And so he was going to quit his job and hand it over to a minority member ... No, don't be ridiculous. He had no thought of giving up his job. He wanted some other white person to give up HIS job for a minority.

To the victor go the spoils. I've heard that. And, yes, that is exactly how it works, like it or not. I've also heard "If you can't beat 'em, join em". That works, too, and illegal aliens need to know that joining doesn't mean "I'm here to get your stuff, free of charge, live nicely on the taxes you pay, and bring the ways I left with me".

If illegals can continue to successfully take your stuff for free then it belongs to them...following the logic about taking land.

EXACTLY!!!! "Give back THEIR land?" Exactly the opposite! We should abolish the reservation system and claim all of OURS once and for all. If they want to live here, require them to live and pay taxes and contribute to our society just like everyone else.

If you could find out who the first human being was who ever set foot in North America, maybe you could say that his descendants rightly own the land. But no one even knows who that is. The Anasazi? Maybe. Or maybe someone before them. And even if we accepted that premise, just what land do they rightly own? Did the first person who stepped into North America thereby instantly gain title to the entire continent? Surely not.

Do you drive a car? Do you live in a house with a door? do you shop at a mall? There are no more Indians and haven't been for many many moons. (exceptions are made to accommodate Role playing indian gangster casino owners and non tax paying high cheek bone grifters)

Case in point: The name Yosemite (derived from yohhe'meti, "they are killers" in Miwok) historically referred to the name that the Miwok gave to the Ahwahneechee People, the resident indigenous tribe of what is now Yosemite National Park.

Just one more thought about bigger guns, taking stuff from others with the bigger hammer idea.

We pride ourselves as being a nation of laws. I think treaties fall under the umbrella of the law.

I don’t know much about our history with treaties and the nomads that roamed our country. But it seems that the Supreme Court has sided with those folks on several cases. Which is great to show how we eventually are held somewhat liable for not complying. But it is after the land was taken using the rule of a bigger gun.

A gang (citizens or illegals doesn’t matter) signs a contract with you not to break into your house. Then they break in and kill everyone in the house, and move in. A few years later your relatives get a judgment against that gang for $X. Seems wrong in someway—but it is the bigger gun theory.

Does not take away from the great things we as a people of this nation have accomplished. But it seems to hide the dirty laundry in order to make ourselves feel good about what we did isn’t quiet right either.

Believe it or not I am a proud citizen of this country, support & will vote President Trump back into office! So hold the liberal chatter for someone else.

So the whole argument of Israel being in existence because some of their tribe lived there 5,000 years ago is a farce.

They have no more claim to that land than does a Native American.

The only reason they where able to move in was they had support from bigger guns—western.

Now I understand.
