As a native American myself, I can understand Native people's anger about how we were treated. But it isn't unique to us. The Irish people were slaves, too. And they were worth far less than black slaves, and treated twice as badly. Bottom line? I hold no ill will towards these people. Events from hundreds of years ago does not affect anyone now. Not only does Mount Rushmore make me proud, I think Mr. Trump will be added once he leaves this plane of existence.

Agree, and I'm 1/16 American Indian too (I never could grow a decent beard! Lol!). We are all Americans now, equal under law. Those who continue to try to divide us are pure evil.
I hear you.....my beard can grow, but it's "stringy".....but I can't grow a mustache to save my life. You can wet my upper lip with milk and a cat could shave it off by licking it.
they are a sovereign nation and don't follow our laws, pay any taxes, have their own medical that is better than ours. I do not think they should have any right to even vote on things that don't effect them we can't vote on their stuff.
