No different than I feel about most people. I hold the position (maybe unpopular sometimes) that all people are just people. There are the good, the bad, and the ugly among all.
Thank you everyone for you input. I am going to make a META post and address everyone instead of replying one by one.
Let me start off by saying that I myself am Native. Not pure blood, but there's very few of them left. The ones that are tend to be heavily inbred.
I was born on a Reservation but did not grow up on it, and I do not receive a percap (free money).
They are a broken people. A few members of the tribe benefit from the casinos but alcohol has broken them.
They have always been a broken people. Still to this day they fight between tribes.
I do not see the casinos as a good thing. Although I do work for one, it enables the masses to live a socialist life style. This is one of the reasons I can't stand the leftist and their communist agenda. I have seen what it can do to people. If this system was implemented across the US it would be devastating.

Less than you, but I have the strong native gene. I'm willing to bet I look more native than you. As I look more native than most people on my reservation.
If this is the case, you are lucky. I am honestly mostly white. Gma on dad's side (native side) was 100% Swedish. My mom's side is damn near 100% German. Lets just say I have close ties to a main antagonist in one of the big wars.
I grew up thinking I was white. Wasn't till high school that I learned the truth (You would think very tan skin would be a give away).
I hold the position (maybe unpopular sometimes) that all people are just people.
Agreed, however upbringing has a huge part to play in it I believe.
I feel bad for them, my people basically genocided them.
Don't feel bad for them. They put up one hell of a fight. If they were united the invaders wouldn't have stood a chance. As I stated earlier they have always been a broken people.
Honestly I think they are much better off now then they were before.
I agree with you 100%
You must be the cool kid in college.

Sad for them. They are a broken people. A few members of the tribe benefit from the casinos but alcohol has broken them.

I don't think you were there. Your ancestors may have helped. But not you.
Did you just assume my age??!!?! I'll have you know I was handing out small pox blankets on the trail of tears!!!!
Nah you're right I wasn't there, and yes my ancestors probably did contribute to the mass murder of the natives.
I refer to them as feather rather than red dot. Does this make me a bad person ?
It's "African American Native Indian" you fucking bigot.
Im some reasonable percentage native, i dont particularly give much of a shit. I look and act and my family all looks and acts white, mostly European ancestory with a bit of native. All the natives ive talked to that are into being natives are pretty trashy welfare type people. I think they have the capacity to be decent and intelligent and most arent really savages, unlike the sub sarahans.
Damn, seems like poal has a relatively high portion of people with a significant amount of native blood. I have a drop or two, maybe. Not enough to mention I'm part indian without sounding like an ass.
Savages that can't handle their alcohol. I have injun in me to not even double digit percentage. Both races did some fucked up shit to each other. Your reaction was reasonable though europe was invading your land. GG we won enjoy the electricity and firearms
