2:34 So these are real photos of him he literally let them take two different photos of him then turned around and betrayed them? Crazy story.
And if you think there was equivalence, you are wrong .
Their barbarities were too awfull to describe then and still are to this day .
There never was a railroad in Santa Fe.
I believe it's called the Atchinson, Topeka, Santa Fe Railroad.

total badass

I've visited the Alamo many times and heard the stroies. Of course I have not seen anthing out ofthe ordinary. You may like the folowing, About 5 years ago I visited the Mexican History Museum which to Americans is the Halls of Montezuma. In a room called "The Alamo" is a tall glass case which held the flag of the New Orleans Grays, 2 pistols, 2 long guns and a pennant of black, red and white boarder. In the center is the Skull and Cross bones. On a wood sled is a small cannon, (2lb?) Across the room is the small box holding Santa Anna's pistols and shoulder boards. In the far end there is the origional 1824 Mexican Constitution. No where in the museum is a picture of Santa Anna. One mone long wall are depictions of all the Mexican Heros but Santa Anna is not among them.

John Wayne’s ghost BULLSHIT!
Interesting reference, when opponents of the Texas annexation from Mexico to the United States was occuring, members and politicians from the northern free states like Massachusetts and Maine states that of the main justifications for the annexation and war with Mexico, many were falsehoods and fabrications to instigate a war as a defensive part when it wasn’t, then quoted LA SALLES Voyages as of the claims of the Texans to territory but it was a known falsehood to justify their claim to Texas and their right to take it from Mexico. The exact quote is here “ Set up rights which are impossible to sustain in a serious discussion, and to bring forward ridiculously pretensions, founded upon historical facts that are admitted by nobody, such as LASALLES VOYAGES, now known to be a falsehood, but which serves as a point for their claim to Texas.”
“I spent New Year’s day on the battle ground counting dead Indians. There were not as many killed as was reported. There was not more than one hundred and thirty killed, but most of them were women and children and all of them scalped.” - Silas Soule Jan. 8, 1865 I respect the dedication for working on making a comprehensive video but it seems immensely one sided with the evidence or lack there of included in the video. That was a first hand account of a man who would later testify. Yes different regiments claimed different numbers of casualties and different percentages of women and children, but you seem to nullify the fact that almost all testimonies concluded that women and children were an integral number of the dead.
Central America is another place. This is called the Great Plains sometimes.

This is real history!
A smart soldier (Custer) would have learned from Fedderman
one of those men killed that first day at the lower agency was my great-great grandfathers older brother. According to an interview my GG-grandfather did in a 1930 newspaper article, he was beheaded and his head placed on a tree stump just outside of the agency.
My 2-greats grandmother was 4 yrs old in 1862. She lived in Cambria MN, just south of New Ulm. Her obituary started that she his in a swamp while the attacks were going on.

I have seen some commentators liken the story to the pagan European myth of the Wild Hunt.
You can see this type of conflict today between the Israeli's and Palestinians. Just as the natives were vilified as heathen savages, so too are the Palestinians as illegitimate terrorists.
Roman Nose said,,,,i will kill him in front of his soldiers,,,, then they will have something to really fight about,,,,,,,,,,,, Roman Nose was talking about Hancock and Tall Bull and Pawnee Killer had to restrain Roman Nose from doing so. Roman Nose decided to meet Hancock and not scalp him. Roman Nose rode up to Hancock with nothing on but ,red black and yellow horizonal War Paint across his face,,,,,,a waistband and breach cloth,,,,,,4 Colt revolvers in his waistband , A Spencer rifle on his side and Bow with nocked arrow in left hand,,,,,,,,,,GEN Hancock described Roman Nose as a God of War,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,I will fight you till my last breath !!!!!!!.

There is a book called the Bloody Bozeman by Dorothy Johnson that gives good account of this also.
So disturbing. It’s nice that some even condemned John Chivington for it, so that says a lot. He got what he deserved same with Governor John Evans. Of course than you wouldn’t be punished for being racist and genocide wasn’t a punishable crime until The Holocaust. Abraham Lincoln doesn’t deserve blame for it because it wasn’t under his control and he and Congress did investigate and condemn them.
Well times were different and war is not a nice Thing. Women and children died on both sides.
Great History..
It Was Talmage Wood who said " Just say for me to the young man of old Milton, don't live and die inside of your father's house but, take a trip to Oregon. But if they should come to settle here. I would advise them to bring a wife along " he said " As ladies are vey scarce and if you should have any maiden ladies about dying of despair just fit up their teeth well and sent them to Oregon .

Has major factual errors…Oregon traildid not traverse anywhere in CO. You owe it to the Indian tribes to pronounce their names correctly…..disappointing….
Thanks for watching. When did I state that the Oregon Trail crossed Colorado? Also, what did I mispronounce? I'd like to know.
Last i heard there was still comanches down there

Your description of the battles perpetuates the lies told by Caringtons wives.
I followed a large portion of the Santa Fe Trail [RT #50] on a bicycle tour from Buffalo New York to Santa Fe NM. It made me reflect on the perils they went thru. In Kearney County KN they have a stop off where you can see part of the wagon wheel ruts.
Epic!
