Do not forget the 200 Lakota women and children that were murdered.

A friend and I were having a discussion about gun violence and such, probably about 2-3 years ago, and he asked me, “what do you think the largest mass murder was in us history” and I was like, “Virginia Tech right?”

And he said, “Wounded Knee. People like to think of it as some war theater, like it was a battle, but hundreds of innocent native Americans lost their lives for no reason than the bloodthirst of a couple white soldiers jacked into a frenzy.”

I always forget Wounded Knee. I think everyone else does too.
