::Added the Dawes Act and its ties to the liberal myth, while at the same time making it extremely clear that, at least strictly speaking, it was not a genocide due to the fact that it was not a deliberate attempt at killing a mass amount of people for their culture.

== Genocides did happen ==
I'm really disappointed that none of you accept this. Though they were small scale events, they did happen. It's such a small thing to admit. There's the Gnadenhutten massacre, the Sand Creek massacre, Custer’s Campaigns, and Wounded Knee. According to the 1775 Phips Proclamation in Massachusetts, King George II of Britain called for “subjects to embrace all opportunities of pursuing, captivating, killing and destroying all and every of the aforesaid Indians.”
Also, colonists were paid for each Penobscot Native they killed – fifty pounds for adult male scalps, twenty-five for adult female scalps, and twenty for scalps of boys and girls under age twelve.
I need only to quote the California Governor Peter H. Burnett, 1851, “A war of extermination will continue to be waged between the two races until the Indian race becomes extinct.” [[User:EasternOrthodox|EasternOrthodox]] ([[User talk:EasternOrthodox|talk]]) 16:11, 25 June 2019 (EDT)
