"The other advancement was the development of the repeating rifle, allowing
hunters to kill buffalo in huge numbers. ...Beyond the technology, the
United States government also encouraged the slaughter of the buffalo as a
strategy to conquer the American plains Indians. American General Phil

exterminated. Then your prairies can be covered with speckled cattle and the
festive cowboy."

General Sheridan was also the guy who said, "The only good Indian is a dead

Denver, they named a street after him.
