We didn't force them out of their lands
Some tried to escape, but the Spaniards murdered them at the gates while they laughed. Others climbed the walls, but they could not save themselves. Others entered the communal house, where they were safe for a while. Others lay down among the victims and pretended to be dead. But if they stood up again they [the Spaniards] would see them and kill them.
Do you actually believe that?
In fact, the Seminoles **Fled** to Spanish Florida because the laws were much friendlier to them there than in the US
and the US invaded Spanish florida as a pretext to kill of the Seminole Indians and runaway Slaves
We invaded to kill the natives. And gain nothing from doing so. What?
We invaded to take the land and resources moron
Spain didn't grant the land after a war, there was no war. Jackson simply invaded to attack the enemies that lived there
You Europeans always have some fetish for the Native Americans. You love pinning all of the genocide on the United States when at LEAST half of it was done by the Old World.
The US didn't go to war with Spain, they violated their sovereign territory to attack their enemy
The Cuban War?
ain't that like 100 years later?
We attacked you. We did that several times, we would raid your settlements.
speaking of the spanish american war, there's a funny story about how the american sortie sent to occupy guam asked the garrison for ammunition and then began shelling them
We were constantly raiding Spanish territory
@galesteppes Americans fear this man
We were stealing your stuff
Atlantic slave trade was illegal in the US, and they were angry at their slaves running off to Spanish lands where Slavery was illegal
So they decided to violate Spanish sovereignty and sent in an army
>spain

We didnt have to ship them in, we bred them
europeans have no power here
@EnderOctanus specially with the massa sperm

Reconquista?
Nice holy wars you waged.
@Nordhand from the article you posted
Yes, as long as they converted to Catholicism, neat little catch you lot had.
Sure, but it didn't stop them
`Spain abolished slavery in Puerto Rico in 1873 and in Cuba in 1886`
