well, i don't really care about any of that. I respect what the man did as an individual, which was to escape from spain and walk from mexico city back to virginia so he could kill every white man there because he was one of the first natives to see what europe was about

unfortunately not many of his fellows shared his vision and now they are gone, replaced by walmart world

wikipedia has part of the story. the reason his name means "He whose Soul is White" was because he was educated in Spain and had firsthand knowledge of European society. Which is exactly why he attempted to expel the english colonists upon his return.

you couldn't bother to google before deciding to be an asshole?

early firearms favored numerical superiority and were conducive to use by the unskilled, that doesn't necessarily mean they were the superior weapon
