My Year of Darwin 3/19/2014: Thou shall kill savages - all of them

 Charles Darwin

"but how much more shocking is the unquestionable fact, that all the women who appear above twenty years old are massacred in cold blood? When I exclaimed that is appeared rather inhuman, he answered, "why, what can be done? they breed so!"  Every one here is fully convinced that this is the most just war, because it is against barbarians, Who would believe in this age that such atrocities could be committed in a Christian civilizes country? "

And so they were exterminated in Chile and Argentina. Mostly by General Rosas but also by tribes threatened by Rosas.
