INDIAN RESERVATIONS ARE MEANT TO "SAVE THE INDIAN PEOPLE" FROM GENOCIDE OF WHITES
In 1855 the Blackfeet Indians signed a treaty of peace, friendship, and amity with the United States of America, which treaty allowed American citizens to cross Blackfoot Confederacy lands unmolested, while the United States promised to protect the Indians from "depredations of white men passing through or living in their country, may commit." The national myth promoted by border-whites, who are known to be parasites on the Indians, is that Indians are "bloodthirsty savages" is taught in public schools in the states. Yet, history teaches us that 12 million Indians perished before the onslaught of Europeans since Columbus arrived in 1492, and the American founders policy was Indian genocide. My tribe, the Blackfeet Indians nearly perished from attempted genocides of Montana border-whites who desired Indian property. Tribal population dropped from 7,800 in 1860 to just 1,811 Blackfeet people left alive by 1890 due to massacre, starvation, small-pox, whiskey trade, and removals caused by encroachment of Montana border-whites who coveted gold mines, grazing lands, and territory of the Indians held by treaty with the United States. Historians are supposed to record the truth, not to be myth-makers that promote the national myth of American liberty and freedom for all. The truth is that the United States began as the colony of Englishmen in Indian Country running from King George's political slavery, and that as soon as the fear of serfdom was replaced by wealth, the Americans became a nation of slave-owners. Ben Franklin recommended "rum" as the means of extermination of the Indians, which killed 25% of the Blackfeet people after the massacre and small-pox outbreaks had driven them mad, and they began to kill each other in drunken rages. The other myth of America is that Christians brought Christianity to the Indian savages, when all they brought was misery for Indian children who were subjected to the constant ridicule by priests of Indian religion, and the sexual abuse of Indian boys described as bleeding rectums "trails of blood" of little boys reported by little girls after the nuns brought the boys to the priests at bedtime. What horrors, while in 2013 the Catholic Church paid the descendants a pittance in class-action suits. Border-whites are not a part of Indian treaty-making, it is a federal exercise of power for accomplishing a treaty-goal. No whites allowed on the reservation! I was 35 years old before I was aware of the unresolved Blackfeet claims that are a century-old white-apartheid system on the reservation in an illegal trespass for 112 years called Glacier County, Montana. The border-whites "extermination" of the Blackfeet people has obviously failed, so they are trying "Slow Death Measures" genocides to "extinguish" Blackfeet treaty rights and take over the rest of our homeland that preserves us as a people. We love our reservation the same way that Jewish and Palestinian people love their homelands. Bob Juneau Sr.
