Hah, those are the same people that murdered us. I am alive because no gold was discovered on the lower Klamath River, thats a fact.Putting all prejudices aside, the new name should be the San Francisco Goldminers
Man, I love to log on to this site.Since the actual 49ers of the gold rush era were nothing but a bunch of Native murderers what should their name be changed too ????
What they did was real and far worse than calling yourself Redskins, which many Indians are proud of I think its only fitting that the 49ers be canceled and forced to pick a new name.
You learn something about anonymity?Man, I love to log on to this site.
It is so amazingly informative.
In all the history that I've studied I had no idea that the gold miners of 1849 were nothing but a bunch of native murderers.
I always thought they were just looking for gold.
Historians have done an amazing job of hiding that history.
We need more posts from posters like Gogoat to keep us informed.
I haven't learned this much since the last time I went to 4chan and learned about Q anon.
Your right, the Army did 100% of it.The USArmy cleared the Indians out so the miners could mine. The miners didn’t commit genocide, the United States government did.
I’m glad that you understandYour right, the Army did 100% of it.
Those innocent miners and settlers were just there doing nothing but being peaceful.
Sorry, you do not know what you are talking about. There was a massacre in Humboldt County where 700 Indians were killed in a even that lasted a couple days. I personally know a man who is Yurok as I am. Thing was, his kin started out Karuk. One day in tha late 1800s miners came up a valley nead what is today orleans CA. They came up the creek burning and killing and 4 redwood canoes were filled with young girls and sent downriver where they were taken in by the Yuroks.The USArmy cleared the Indians out so the miners could mine. The miners didn’t commit genocide, the United States government did.
They were assisted by the new California government that wanted to take care of its Indian problem so the gold could be mined and California could become a State. The government facilitated that and later carried out in spades by the US Government after the civil war.Sorry, you do not know what you are talking about.

It was the miners, not the Army.
