Jackson

This was another interesting, but sad read. The government was wrong for the false treaties they brought before the Senate. The white person's mistreated the Poncas even as they proceeded to comply with the treaty that abandoned everything from their settlesments,homes, and hunting-grounds. Yes, the U.S. government agreed to protect these individuals, but in the end they continued to destroy and take away what was not theirs from the beginning.

It saddens me read and or witness innocent people like the Poncas killed and driven from their homeland for no reason. The Poncas were brave individuals, and I admire them for remaining loyal and peaceable throughout all their truobles.
