    "God made big men, and God made small men. Colonial Colt made the equalizer."
    That's closer to the original quote.

      You think Custer died because of their weapons? How do you watch such a good documentary and this is your dumb comment?

      @jypsyjewels2854 That is also true. Isn't interesting how that works?
      Old Andy Jackson gets his life saved in the Red Stick rebellion by a Cherokee. Then, in his Indian Removal Act of 1830, Andy kicks us out across the Mississippi River. Except for a tiny bunch of us who hide in the mountains. My family primarily comes from that group, though some went on the Trail where they cried. As it's called by the Cherokee People.
      Up in the north, the Lakota, Dakota, and Nakota are all kicked out onto the Plains by the Anishinaabe.
      Then they push The Crow out of the way. Geez, it never ends, does it?
      My apologies if I slighted your People in any way.
      I hope you will be safe, well, and happy.

    Wow I've seen some great documentarys before, but this wasnt one of them. It wasn't even good. It was like walking 10 miles in wet socks and having only maggots for food.

      Finesse , class , brutal environment and turbulent timeline , larger than life events and many other reasons. Meanwhile the bloods and crips ( I had to Google what they are ) are just a bunch of illiterate and unskilled Street ruffians who wouldn't last a day in a harsh dog eat dog terrain and with constant manhunts behind them .

    We probably shouldn't glamorize or romanticize it too much, but it wasn't all blood, violence, & death 24/7 either depending on where you were.

      I know several Sioux here in South Dakota and they mostly don’t mind “indian”. It’s guilty whites that think it’s offensive

      Stick to things you know, bud.
      You go around saying "Native American" in North American first nations, you're going to find trouble. They invariably prefer and derive pride from "indian" as the broader term.
      Take your loser PC reflexes somewhere else. You have no idea what you're talking about. 🙄
