Otrada [13]3 years ago

The basic tenets of American democracy can vary depending on who answers the question. However, some elements are considered to be particularly important. One of these is the fact that all citizens are considered to be equal. Equality ensures that all citizens can vote, and that they all have access to the same rights and privileges. Another important tenet is the fact that the law applies to everyone, and that the Constitution is the supreme law of the land. Finally, popular consent and majority rule are also important elements of American democracy.

In the late 1800s, after treaties and reservations failed, the United States Army went to war with American Indians in the West.
Georgia [21]
I’ll give you two:

Yes: The “War” on the Indians was not a traditional war of declaration but of skirmishes. When wagon trains of people headed West Indians would commonly target them for raids and pillage, so along many routes forts where built and patrols would try and make sure they were safe. If the problem became worse the local garrison would find the tribe and come with a list of demands. Most of the time they were fired upon arrival out of fear or anger. This would lead to a small battle or skirmish which would likely cause collateral damage.

No: The wars raged in the west against the Indians were that of near genocide, and to call it anything but is misleading. To claim that the slaughter of hundreds of innocent people was a “battle” is absurd and shouldn’t be considered. Though in films that depict such events are dramatized and inaccurate, situations much like those were taking place around the west yearly.
