Useless Information






Did you know:

There are actual photographs of the Indian Chief Geronimo but there are no photos of Chief Crazy Horse.

All pictures of Crazy Horse are artist’s depictions of what he looked like.

Chief Geronimo looks pretty sad in that photo. He's wearing the clothes of the white man. That was probably taken on a reservation.

Photography was in it's infancy then. There weren't a lot of cameras around. Did Crazy Horse end up on a reservation?

Something we never hear about is, the pilgrims landed in here a little over 200 years ago.

The Indians where here when the Pilgrims landed and we never hear about how long the Indians were here before the Pilgrims!

Slavery was abolished in 1865, 147 years ago and we still hear how we “owe” them for making them slaves.

What do we or should we owe the Indians, the US really screwed those people over.

There is a reason why native tribes said white man speaks with fork tongue. The history of the native tribes is ripe with deviant and criminal behavior against native tribes by U.S. government officials.
there is enough material on this subject to discuss till we die. Learn history, it teaches us the future. By the way , pilgrims entered America almost 400 years ago.

I wish to add a few famous quotes from Chief Joseph:

“It does not require many words to speak the truth”

“ We do not want churches because they will teach us to quarrel about God, as the Catholics and Protestants do. We do not want that. We may quarrel with men about things on earth, but we never quarrel about the Great Spirit”.

Wise words we all should live with.
