Sorry Thomas, I can't support the idea of promoting hanging. The hanging of the 36 Sioux in Mankato comes to mind as well as the burning and some beheading of women practicing herbal medicine. I'm surprised Malone "liked" this idea!

Tell

Me how you put the fear of God into those who have stolen billions and billions?

You hang a couple of them, that's how.

First of all, putting the "Fear of God" isn't in my vocabulary. Has it ever worked to put violence and the wild west tactics to cure and end any debauchery? Knowing a person will be held to experience their own actions in the afterlife is a good start.

The Sioux who were hung in Mankato were found guilty of murder. They knifed open the bellies of pregnant women, killed defenseless settlers, and most Native Americans in Southern Minnesota from that tribe were completely against that violence.....and were glad those who were involved were hung. That was the punishment for that kind of thing in 1858. By today's population ratio.....one million Minnesota settlers were killed in the illegal uprising.

By the way...it was caused by Abe Lincoln choosing to re-direct funds from the Indian Reservation stores to the Civil War. There are many good history books on the subject...find one.

This reminds me of the Hamas War....people choose sides based on skin color and ethnicity...not right or wrong. Killing innocent people is never right....and only in a declared war among soldiers of war.....is it even tolerable....at best. Why we always need to avoid wars.

Excuse me, your response is filled with that tone of superiority and disregard for my point of view and knowledge. How about you look at your own attitude indicating your information is the only one to consider. I suppose you are an expert in these affairs? Talk about propaganda, there have been plenty of inaccuracies portrayed about most of the Native history. There are plenty of good, accurate books written about the trials of the Natives...find one.
