And slavery. Don't forget the slavery.

In fact, because of the wording of the 14th amendment, it's still cool. As long as you get locked up for committing a crime first.

For sure, the settlers colonized the land and people too

Apologies for the minor nitpick since it’s probably a typo, but it’s actually the 13th amendment, which is even worse since that’s the one that supposedly abolished slavery
