My mother's father's paternal ancestor arrived at Jamestown in 1614 right after the colony militia battled the natives for land. He was 19 with money since he bought 150 kegs to tobacco to ship back to pay for the passage of his wife and supplies he needed. She arrived the following year so he now had 100 acres. We don't know what they did for the next five years intil they were recorded attending s meeting of Friends down by the Albemarle Estuary. That region was considered to be hostile native territory. In 1620 the Virginia Colony decided to allow colonists to make their own deals for land with the natives with most living in close proximity to native communities. I believe they were left alone with those being massacred were residing on land taken from the natives by force.
What did anyone expect? A superior civilization crushed weaker barbaric tribes. This is history. The Romans with their superior civilization invaded Britain and crushed the weaker Celtic tribes and made Britain a Roman colony that lasted 400 years. This is history.
I hope you don't utter a word of complaint if a ucious theif breaks into your home, overpowers you, slaughters your family, and steals everything you own since this too has occurred throughout history.
Thank you!
It's such a sad story I cannot watch the whole thing. I'll save it for when I want to get depressed.

The colonist had technological and numerical superiority , absolutely not Moral authority. What do expect when you steal from other people!
