Technically the indigenous savages were migratory and had no valid claim to any given land.

Most had no system of ownership at all... land or items.

Technically they may not even have been indigenous, since they migrated here and have genetic origins that can be traced to a different landmass.

They always have to pick something out of history and tell themselves they're evening the score. A bunch of self appointed Gods.
The original Europeans who came to North America were not "immigrants". Immigrants are people who move from their country of birth to a new country. When the original Europeans arrived here, there was no "country". It was a nameless continent, sparsely inhabited by small tribes of stone-age, hunter gatherers.
The original Europeans built a nation in a wilderness. They were not immigrants. They were explorers. They were settlers. They were conquerors.

did the Indian tribes have an immigration policy that Europeans violated?
nope.

That's a great point. Even the proudest white supremacist wouldn't fault the natives for defending their land. I mean... it's ours now. But good on them for trying.
