http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sitting_Bull

This guy was the real hero where I spent the first part of my life. Like think of how George Washington and Thomas Jefferson are deified in most of the country. He's buried there too of course.

Definite Freedom Fighter.

HP-Im part Native, but the White "conquest" was bound to happen. I mean, you really think Europe was just going to sit there, and look at America as the natives land? No-They brutally conquered the East Coast-and there descendants took over the West for themselves. It doesnt bother me. That was the thinking of the time. It wasnt a "genocide", as scholars claim. So who cares? It simply had or was bound to happen. NONE of us would be alive today if it didn't!

I heard that the Battle of Little Bighorn may have actually done more harm, since it made the whites a lot more apesh-t towards the natives, or something.

FF. He was justified in his actions to protect his tribes' land. Of course you can't overlook that his bands killed innocent people and there was a treaty- even if it was forced upon them and broken.

Sitting Bull was cool, but I have more admiration for Red Cloud.

Well it goes without saying that any Indian dang (as the Thais call them) who fought the white was a freedom fighter.

Multiculturalism has failed. It would be impossible for the natives to stay on there land. I think they evolved into the "American" race, and are now part of normal culture. My great-great grandmother was Cherokee. Her mother and father had no education. They starved. They went to a reserve, and her life got better. Whats disgusting is that a murderer's like Sitting Bull is being supported by people who ARE NOT EVEN NATIVE AMERICAN!

Kuster would of launched a Genocide, given the chance. But the overall result regarding colonization/western expansion was not Genocide.
