That was the point I was making. What was yours???

If the United States Government were to dissolve, or to suddenly give all land to American Indian tribes, any deeds I have would be void. I wouldn't have much to say about it. I would never give land back to the indigenous Americans because they never owned it in the first place. You can't give something back to someone who never had it in the first place.
I'll tell you something I wouldn't do. I wouldn't start training my daughter to hate the American Indians or to blow them up. I, unlike the American Indians actually do own my land, and if my deed were made void, I'd fight to defend it, but not if it would risk the lives of my wife or daughter. If it got too ugly, I'd cut my losses and move somewhere else. I'd act like a reasonable and rational person and move on.
