Now 150 or so years later CMAC is espousing this philosophy as one that we should admire and follow. One could only conclude two things. One, CMAC wants the same result for us that the Sioux experienced. Or, two CMAC is going mad...repeating the same thing over and over but expecting different results. Either way turing the other cheek when your in a fight for life is never a good idea.
I really admire him for the courage of his convictions, even though I may not share those convictions all the time
