Indeed. The tribes were their own nation with their own culture, history, language, and religion. Native Americans aren’t a monolith.What about native tribes that were conquered by other native tribes?
For ex.

If we stole the land from the Native Americans, doesn't it stand to reason that the illegal aliens that flooded through the border were trying to steal the land from us?
Well…some say America is the “great melting pot” or more accurately “a tossed salad.”
Maybe she'll get arrested for knowingly buying and receiving stolen property.If it’s on stolen land as she claims then the house is not legally hers.
Interesting. I know he is devoutly religious and proudly pro-life.
Well, now, not necessarily. About forty years ago I remember a house going up on a lot that was then just outside a city limit. They had the walls up and were at the point of starting the ceiling joists and rafters when barrier tape went up around the property and the house. Turned out that someone was building a house on property that did not belong to them. The owner passed by, saw what was going on, and put a stop to it.If it’s on stolen land as she claims then the house is not legally hers.
The amusing thing to me and my family is we could say "Get off my lawn, paleface." That overlooks the change in territories among the indigenous peoples and their goings on when the Europeans arrived. Hernando de Soto came upon a culture recovering from collapse and encountered what could be called city states. IIRC, the town of Tama was a vassal of the town of Ocute, and the chief of Tama took one look at de Soto's army and tried to cut a deal to overthrow Ocute. The Creek migration story solidly puts them in Northern Mexico during an eruption of a volcano, and they ended up in what's now the southeastern US, absorbing tribes along the way, like the Hitchiti. Then there was a tribe that lived on the Oconee River that may have migrated to present day Florida and become part of the Seminoles. Certainly part of the Upper Creeks did. So pointing out that I might have indigenous ancestry doesn't mean those ancestors were indigenous to where I'm sitting at the moment. Well, at least not since people have been writing down the history.
Yes I’ve seen that happened not too far from me. The owner took the contractor to court, won, and the contractor had to remove the structure including the foundation and plant the trees that they had removed.
