You are incorrect. I'm not uncomfortable with it. History simply is what it is- for me. It doesn't upset me. I simply don't see evidence for it as a common practice. Arguing with right wingers, as you do, I know you get used to personalizing arguments (and I realize that's personal- but I don't say this is a right or wrong tactic, and I'm not upset about it)- but insulting the person with whom you are speaking, or attributing things to them that are not true, will convince no one, or at least it will not convince me. So again, unless you have evidence that it was common, I will continue to say it happened, but not very often. What did happen often to the Indians was that they were massacred or starved, which I don't find to be much "better" than being killed with germs. They were treated horribly, but I just don't happen to find much support for the biowarfare idea. If evidence comes to light- bully! I'll read it with interest. I don't have a problem with history- whatever it happens to be.
