Gavin McInnes: Raise a drumstick to the Indians

November 27, 2015 By Kathy Shaidle

Gavin McInnes writes:

As the father of many Indians myself, I don’t like this narrative. We didn’t just barge in and wipe out an entire people. We fought them from 1540 to 1890. That’s 350 years! They eventually lost, but nobody has proved to be as worthy an adversary as the Indians. We fought them a hundred times longer than we fought the Nazis. When we portray the Indians as an innocent tribe of peaceful hippies who were duped with “guns, germs, and steel,” as Jared Diamond would say, we make them look bad. They were warriors.
