Centennial Exposition in 1876? What was there to celebrate when the entire Declaration of Independance, from the British Monarchy, was outright theft by the founding fathers to states, land belonging to indigenous people with full sovereignty.

Law professor Robert J. Miller[5] states that by 1493, "The idea that the Doctrine [of discovery] granted European monarchs ownership rights in newly discovered lands and sovereign and commercial rights over Indigenous peoples due to first discovery by European Christians was now established international law, at least to Europeans."[6] Law professor Kent McNeil,[7] however, states, "it is not apparent that such a rule was ever part of the European law of nations."[8]

Francisco di Vitoria, in 1539 Vitoria wrote that the Spanish discovery of the Americas provides "no support for possession of these lands, any more than it would if they had discovered us."

So, until the thieves are ready to redress, with reparations, this entire United States system, and its government against a sovereign people. We are only perpetuating for the next generation the greatest lie ever told.
