Should all native Americans go back to Asia since DNA testing proves they came from there?

Reason. One

Why are so many people trying to send everybody else somewhere else?

What a sad world.

Ted

If so, then we so called whites should go back to Europe and Blacks to Africa if that is your opinion.Ridiculous question without any value or merit.

Native people are not from Asia. This is popular scientific myth. There are two people on YA that will tell you different for sure and try and site some evidence as to this fact. However, I highly doubt they have researched the topic themselves. Many scholars, scientists, and common citizens today believe in this theory on blind faith. The land bridge theory, is just that a THEORY. If it could be proven they would no longer call it a theory. There is, in fact, more evidence to disprove the theory than there is in favor of it. For more information you can read the book "Red Earth White Lies", it has a strong scientific foundation.

As for the DNA - RNA "evidence": There is no way this can be accurate. Scientists are only begining to understand to the human genome. They are definately too far away from deciding the origins of everyone on Earth based upon it. There were two shows on the Discovery channel that perpetuated this myth however I think we will soon see others that show this is not true. I would look into it more. It doesn't even hold up to common sense.

Having said that. No matter what you believe consider this:
The Land Bridge Theory has not been proven. Until this is proven why not let Native people decide for themselves where they came from??? It is not anyone's place to tell Natives of their own origins.

I am a Native woman.
I can tell you from experience and education that this is a strong form of scientific racism that many choose to believe and support with weak science

Why cannot we all work as allies in supporting a Better world?

whats your point are you anti american or just plain racist

So what do you do with the millions of people that can trace their heritage to different areas of the world - do I cut off one arm and send it to Italy, a foot to Ireland, the other hand to Hungary? If you want to trace it all far enough, you'd have most of the peole of the world trying to crowd into the Tigris & Euphrates river valley - known today as Iraq!

I think DNA proves that pretty much everyone in the world came from Asia. That is where the first humans appeared.

I don't know what the point is about going back there? By native Americans do you mean American Indians? Oh, I get it. You are saying that no one has claim to America, right?

Well, that is true with practically every country on earth. Most changed hands many times before the current population took over. You threw me with the "native Americans". Actually, anyone born in America is a native American.

Everybody in America came from somewhere!!! Remember ,the US is a young country in comparison to others. Most have come here from abroad..What they were looking for was a life!

n8vchick

HUH...you people...is it that your trying to right your ancestors wrongs by bringing up hypothetical "ship-outs"...or just plain idiocy???

Natives were here for thousands and thousands of years before the euro-invasion...the tribes that were pillaged and raped were NATIVE to this land as they were born and raised here...

MY goodness, this subject is getting tired!!!!

Hey RedPower Woman and Lakota, don't you get tired of answering this type of question? I do.
So come on ladies, all together now, "WE DIDN'T MIGRATE FROM ANYWHERE DAMMIT !"

DAR

No, because we and the legal immigrants built this country, its economy and schools, and fund its services. We own it, and we make the rules regarding who else can come.

Lakota

No. Agrees with RedPower's answer, no need to add to it.
Surprised she overlooked the racist connotation of your current nick. Your racist inquiries about natives should be overlooked anyway, this is the last time I will notice your existance on Yahoo. I'll let RedPower rant on you, since her only interest on YAnswers is being a native woman. ;-)

amandapanda

I'm am descended from the Germans, Scots, Irish, Cherokee, Lakota-Sioux, English, and Moors. Please, tell me where i should go if i were to be deported on the basis of my heritage.

Not only does this question make you sound racist, it proves to the rest of us how ignorant you are. Before you ask other, similarly ignorant questions, educate yourself with a little, valid research.

no money

they r from asia it doesnt mean that they have to come back.
since they have already settle down in america why not just continue the life..
its like you've already grown up n should u wear those baby clothes u wore while u were young..
peace dude..

Preciosa

This has got to be the dumbest question Iâ€™ve read so far on Yahoo Answer...ever.

If you want to send native americans back to asia, then maybe your ignorant self should be sent back to europe since Iâ€™m assuming youâ€™re white of european decent. And letâ€™s not forget that native americans had settled in north and south american waaaaaaaaaaaaaay before the europeans ever showed up. So who has the right to the land? Obviously not you.

Indigo

Here's a thought... If they are related at all, ever think that maybe it is the Asians that came from THEM, or more like common ancestors, instead? No matter what land they had their feet on.

All people have migrated forever, and all people have come from each other. So why should it matter. No matter what people want to believe, the people in this country had been here for at least MANY thousands upon thousands of years, which would very easily break people off from being the same. Give it that long, they are their own people...just the same as whites no longer being African...

The Falcon

Who is speaking this? From where he/she came to America? Yes, I would support the idea if he/she is honest to his/her opinion and goes back to his/her native land leaving the America. Ha...Ha...Ha... why are you mute now, my friend?

Week people always get pleasure by blaming and striking other week ones. But they never take any risks to develop and do good for those people. Please, be a brave person and come up to help the weaker ones; we all would be with you.

poseidenneptune

You should go back to africa since all mankind originated there.

â–ªÏŽhiteÄÄ±rlâ–ªÂ®

That's ignorant. Why should I go to Asia? I was born HERE. I'm a LEGAL American citizen. Why are you illegal supporters so freakin jealous of us? Get over it already.

watzzzup

Europeans first....guilty of mass murder and genocide,
then consider the Asian questions.
