It was great. The statue wasn't up a week before the feet were gone. And MAN had the pueblos, the navajos, and more so the apaches fought the erecting of that statue!

The Spanish treated American Indians horribly, but we in the U.S. can hardly point fingers. Bit of the old pot calling the kettle black.
Yes, Soledad, but it was the Spanish IN America, BEFORE it became America that caused the trouble that we are referring to. No, the English pretty much sucked too. The only country that had even the slightest inkling of caring about the Native Americans was France (God I hate saying that! lol).
Sooooo....is the statue still up? I think they should have left it up footless so that when people go to look at it and ask why it doesn't have any feet, they would have to explain what he did to the Natives....just desserts!! hehehehe (Yes, it's true, I am an evil person)
You know, I'm not sure if the statue is still up... I'll ask.
