I do not think you can judge people of history through the prism of modern values. I don't think any of the explorers of the time could be considered good people by today's standards. In their time who knows, they were tasked by their investors with finding gold and territory and when you see a people as being inferior....bad shit is going to happen every time. Talking of inaccuracies, you claim the population of Hispaniola was 3 million. Population estimates at the time said it could have been as high as One Million.

If you read the Michael Creighton book The Eaters of the Dead, that is exactly who they were. Neanderthals making a last stand against modern humans.

BULLSHIT, the native population has been vastly overestimated. The Native population in North America was probably no more than 10 million of which about 90% died from disease.

News flash the Native Americans were murdering, enslaving, and conquering one another for thousands of years before Europeans ever came here. The myth that the American Indian was peaceful and living in harmony with nature it 100% revisionist bullshit. If the technological revolution would have happened in America instead of Europe than the American Indian would have been the ones expanding, murdering, conquering, and enslaving peoples they encountered.

It is our land by right of conquest. The ONLY prerequisite to own land is to have the ability to defend it.
