Also 1890, Chicago was already on it's way to becoming a corrupt city... so I wouldn't boast about that too much.
Wow, first, I never claimed to be a history expert. I'm also not a geography expert, but I'm pretty dang sure that my ancestors were not soldiers at Wounded Knee in 1890, seeing as how they immigrated to Chicago, via Ellis Island, in the 1890s.
Thanks for playing.
Irrelevant to either, the point is that your ancestors were on land taken from my ancestors, so either way I could lay claim to theft of land etc, while you call it the betterment of your lives...
As for the rest, Chicago was already violent back then, killing a race or culture didn't matter, murder was murder, and it seems to be a thing there still today...

Ahh, the old move-the-goalposts play. You're the winner, TC. My ancestors are the sole reason your ancestors got annihilated. WTG. You nailed it! Anyway, the original point, my ancestors didn't come here to make their lives worse, as some have claimed.

I'm descended from Neanderthals, I trump your ass.

While we didn't descend from the Neanderthals through an evolutionary transformation, if there was interbreeding, some of us today (particularly in Eurasia) might have Neanderthal-derived genes. However, my reading of the fossil and genetic data (the latter including some Neanderthal DNA) suggests that any Neanderthal contribution was vanishingly small. So I would still say that the answer, in any meaningful sense, is no.

Do you even read the things you post to before doing it?
The Neanderthals lived in Europe and Asia from over 200,000 years ago until (in some areas) less than 30,000 years ago
The answer is yes if you are of Asian and European descent, which you are, by your own claim...so that in turn means yes, you were, and were a good portion of people on this forum...
