I didn’t say there weren’t other reasons, in fact I suggested money.
As was pointed out once before, Kennewick was the example given in KU’s post in this thread, not the injustice in the rest of the world.

I have an obligation to follow this thread before commenting, not other threads or other discussions. If you have some other thread that you want to refer to, then please cite it.
