Comments[edit]

Seems rather pro-Cayuse violence. Whoever wrote this is less interested in the unbias facts of history than they are about making a statement about the ethics of the Oregon trail. Such passion is better left for private websites. —Preceding unsigned comment added by CapitolHistory (talk • contribs) 02:36, 2 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, it was trying to be neutral and take in a more modern historiography view of the events, especially taking into account the trial you speak of in your edit summary, which not everyone sees the trial as exactly unbiased and neutral in retrospect (jurors of their peers were apparently white settlers). It was also a US court, and at the time of the Whitman Massacre the area was not a US territory or state (Oregon Territory created 8/14/1848), thus there are some legal issues, not to mention tribes were/are supposed to be their own nations and have some level of sovereignty (that's why they get casinos and tax free cigarettes). And as to private website, Wikipedia is a private website, nothing government about it. Aboutmovies (talk) 06:07, 2 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Part of the last paragraph doesn't really seem encyclopedic, more of a forward looking statement. I don't think it fits, so I removed it as it was not cited and provided no real information besides a debate on how much is recorded and a hopeful statement.
