yep indeed, I don't understand it either. why do we have to fight, the world would be a much nicer place if it wasn't for all these wars. especially with the one that's brewing at the moment, in the Ukraine and Russia?!

Last Ghost is also the right answer. Benjamin Harrison & BIA didn't understand the ghost dance and in fear of an uprising. He decided to slay the village of elders, women & and children while most of the men were away hunting for food. COWARDS!

padi & super 4, America & Americans are not the only people to kill. Killing has been ongoing since the beginning of times & will inevitably continue on unfortunately to Innocent & guilty alike. Everyone everywhere is innocent & guilty.
