January 29th, 1863 Bear River Massacre- Washington State

As the Shoshone were reaching desperate measures to fight off the U.S. Army, including the use of tomahawks and archery, the soldiers seemed to lose all sense of control and discipline. After most of the men were killed, soldiers proceeded to rape and molest the women of the encampment, and many of the children were also shot and killed.

In some cases, soldiers held the feet of infants by the heel and "beat their brains out on any hard substance they could find." Those women who refused to submit to the soldiers were shot and killed. One local resident, Alexander Stalker, noted that at this time many soldiers pulled out their pistols and shot several Shoshoni people at point blank range.

The soldiers also deliberately burned almost everything they could get their hands on, especially the dwelling structures that the Shoshone had been sleeping in, and killing anybody they found to be still inside.

Danish emigrant Hans Jasperson claims to have walked among the bodies, counting 493 dead Shoshones.

RP - It's not easy having a degree in History. You have to have a strong stomach.

This happened in California in too many places to mention.

I was unaware of the Bear River Massacre, but knew about several massacres in California that sound exactly like this one. Sometimes it's soldiers, sometimes it's just regular citizens (like what happened in Eureka).

Humans can be VERY cruel.
Made me think of the animals that killed all those people on 9/11.
There has been evil in this world all along........we arn't as civilized as we think.
