ok alejo youre very uninformed. this happened way before any presidencies or there being any presidents. way before. and it was a genocide, there was no friendly meeting between pilgrims and indians and it should not be celebrated by watching football and eating turkey, and then going shopping for deals the next day. face it, accept it. its very ****ing twisted.
