<DIV>I Think someone needs to read their history better Chief Joseph did not
start the war, it was two young men from another band that started the war, the
Nez Perce in the escape tried to control the younger braves and not kill
innocent people unless they were attacked first, also Chief Joseph was not the
war chief and actually took very little part in the fighting unless he had
to.</DIV>

<DIV>Before you go off half cocked you had better read the whole story and
learn about how many whites were killed by Chief Joseph and his people before
they ran to Canada. The white people didn't just go out and hunt down Indians
for sport like the movies tell us. </DIV>
<DIV>If you would like to read what Aunt Charlotte wrote about this I can send
you her book but I doubt that it would help because you obviously have your
mind made up that the whites were the bad people and the poor Indians were
just peaceful loving people who wouldn't bother a sole.</DIV>
<DIV>Sorry but I can't stand this rewrite of history I have Indian blood in me
and I have relatives who were captured by the Indians and never seen again.
There are bad people on all sides of history. </DIV></DIV>
