Joanne,
Thanks again for one more source which demonstrates these terms were originally simply bias based name calling by paler neighbors.While I have obviously not memorized as much of this research as you, my understanding of its historic context far surpasses yours.You ineptitude concerning history is the source of most of the flaws in your conclusions.By 1795, multi-ethnic renegades, separated by diverse cultural practices from the dissipating backcountry Amerind tribal groups, were commonly attaching themselves to communities of paler settlers and seeking parity with these settlers both civicly and socially.
