-'''The Wounded Knee Massacre''' was a battle between Indians and the U.S. Army on December 29, 1890. The U.S. Cavalry were ordered to remove some Lakota [[Sioux]] from their reservation in [[South Dakota]] to another reservation in [[Nebraska]].  The attempt to disarm the Indians turned fatal when a dispute over one tribesman's rifle turned into a major exchange of gunfire.
+Vandals will defeat Conservapedia.
-In the end, over 150 [[Native Americans]], including women and children, were killed, along with 25 U.S. soldiers, most of whom were killed by friendly fire.
-The battle ended the Indian wars as the Indians returned peacefully to their reservations.
-The battle is an iconic signpost of Native American history, usually brought up by liberals --they always call it a "massacre"--to attack national policy and seek additional privileges for Native Americans today.
