I agree with Jughead... The flag doesn't bother me. Hell it could be a native American veteran showing his patriotism in the US and his tribe or it could be some bent out of shape NA who thinks his tribe deserves more (or whatever). I much rather see this flag then a Mexican flag at a illegal immigration rally!!!

Do we go back to demanding an apology from the French for the Normans invading Saxon England.
Was it wrong by today's standards absolutely, but by the standards of the day that is a much trickier question. Back then colonization of less developed countries was common. We wouldn't do it now but then it was standard practice.
You can't turn back the clock and apply current standards to things that happened a long time ago. If we could the Scandinavians would be apologizing to northern Europe of the Vikings. Its the same thing just a longer time scale.
btw: 1066 was the last time France won anything against the British

I don't have a problem with it. It's not like it's being burned or stuck in a toilet.

Here is a topic for you: Did we steal the land from them or did we win it via one long war.
Yes, we treated them beyond horribly, but, for example, the French and English did that to each other for years.
I am sure many on here will hate me for this, but certain tribes were friendly to the English in the Revolutionary and the War of 1812. They picked the wrong side.
History may not be your forte.

Good point, nothing has ever absolute in terms of land, natives could just try to take the land back if they wanted it bad enough. Of course that probably would slow down casino revenues.

Thank god the missing link was never found, he would own the world.
The long war part was a bit tongue in cheek. But the tribes did side with the Brits during those wars, so those particular tribes got what was coming to them.

Totally disagree. Let's see if we are talking War of 1812 it was a stalemate after U S wanted to annex Canada, the home of the Native Americans. The Brits kept it and evacuated the new colonies. That was the stalemate. BTW, the Brits burned down DC.
If you are speaking of the Revolution, the Colonies employed French, Indians and mercenaries, as the British hired Hessians and Indians. Pick a tribe.
