Frankly, I think the invasion of the continent by Europeans in general was that moment.

What was the death toll across the Americas of native peoples again?

I'll have to look up the numbers later. it's minutes from bed time for me. We went camping, and the demented (literally, not a joke) mother in law contributed to some sleep deprivation for the wife and me. It will be the last time we take her camping, poor thing.   In any event, the proportion I recall is something like 98% of the Native population is gone, now.

Of course people try and downplay with the whole sickness thing but i'm sorry you can't ignore the massacres
