Hi Matt Poot,

Your romantic view of the American Indian is rather naive as Pirsig points
out in Chp. 24 of Lila:

"Primitive tribes such as the American Indians have no record of sweetness
and cooperation with other tribes. They ambushed them, tortured them,
dashed their children's brains out on rocks."

Not my idea of "quite nice."
