Recent reports attributed to US Atty. Genl. Pamela Bondi a statement that "peaceful Christians" were being attacked in the US and wasn't it just awful, so she has created a "task force" to ferret out the causes and to suggest what might be done.
Peaceful? In 1500 CE there were by various estimates I've seen over the past 80 years some 3,000,000 to 10,000,000 non-European and presumably non-Christian inhabitants of North America (north of Mexico). About 300 distinct languages were spoken, distributed among major language groups such as Eskimo-Aleut, Algonquian, Athabascan, and Siouan, as well as many smaller groups. California alone had more than 20 distinct language groups, reflecting especially high linguistic diversity.
Today after 425 years of "peace" there are about 400,000 (based on language as an indication of culture). That number rises to as many as one million if one adds persons who identify with a tribal nation but do not speak its language.
If there were ever a clearer example of decimation I've not seen it.

Some have suggested that I replace my high school graduation photo at the top of this index, but the only images I have are of some old man; suggestions welcome.
