I live in a land settled by people who hunted redskins and owned
******s.

Whether you accept the theory of a Bering Land Bridge or not, I am
rather
certain that the "Native Americans" that first settled most of North
America
were often (though not universally) involved in tribal conflicts
which
resulted in the loss of life, I rather doubt that they owned
"******s" as
you put it. For more information on the Bering Land Bridge,

I live in a land settled by people who collected bounties on
wolves,
coyotes,
every kind of weasel, eagles and all other raptors, snakes, and
numerous
other competitors who interfered with their rapine.

I rather doubt that they collected bounties of any sort on animals,
but am
willing to concede the point if you can direct me toward appropriate
documentation.

I live in a land settled by people who considered every acre clear
cut or
burned to the
ground a tribute to a beneficent and omniscient god.

I also doubt that clear cutting or burning was a wide spread
practice..

I live in a land with a growing population hell-bent now upon
preventing
such practices.

And it's a good thing too!

Good luck with the brain damage.

Mighty kind of you.

Just wondering, is it possible you were thinking of European
settlers?

Thus demonstrating that starting out from born stupid, the only way to
go is stupider.
