Most of the native Americans died of diseases brought from Europe, for which they had not defense. No genocide. True, their survivors were not treated well, either. Unfortunately, many of them weren't exactly gentlemen themselves. I consider the Cherokee and the Nez Perce to those msost offended against. Their crime was to accept the European system and excel at it.
The Indians gave us gonorrhea and tobacco. Those killed a lot of immigrants and still are.
No death camps in the US, not charcoal powered ovens.
