Can you point out where I said, or even implied, that "this gives us the
right to ignore treaties and treat them like subhuman populations"? How
could you possibly construe what I said to mean that, whether you agree
with it or not?

As for your comment that you and so many other Native Americans are
"pissed off at Europeans",

1. I have a life, thanks.

2. My name is spelled "Barnard".

3. I'm not European, and more than you are Asian.

4. This is a racist statement and a racist attitude.
