The article recalls that although Reno had counted only 10 dead, further research would count 28. I think since this makes mention of the up-to 56 wounded it should also mention the up-to 28 dead.

This article is downright racist, especially the "first time tribes showed cohesion fighting together"passage. What kind of colonialist hogwash is this ??? -VictoryBlood 09:18, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

I concurr. This article is completely biased. It is narrated exclusively from the perspective of the Anglo-Americans. It does not represent the views of our people whatsoever. We lost many courageous souls in battle that day, and to have it be trivialized in such a manner is disgusting. There should be a revolution amongst the Wikipedia community. Why should we let these barbaric foreigners push us around any longer? They stole our lands, butchered our people, destroyed our religion, exploited our culture, desecrated our sacred places and exposed us to diseases to which we had no immunity. We cannot let them rewrite our history. It's about time those visitors from across the ocean showed us some respect. We must assert ourselves as the heirs to the glorious civilization of our ancestors. We must force them to recognize that we are the true guardians of the land, that as visitors, they may use it if they like, but their use must meet with our expressed approval.

EightDeer sounds a bit too militant, and off topic. The whole article needs a re write, but to go on with such a proclaimation? very odd. However your respect to our culture and history is admirable. Militant action with militant need, the need being the peoples aproval and aspiration, I dont see Pine Ridge taking up arms in revolt, or Quito in a revolutionary blaze, thus the violent method illegitamate, not to mention inpractical. Revolution with need, not desire.
