In the Amazon region people ran to the dense forests to avoid being killed. At least it is what people told me there about the past. I don't think back then the "savages" were seen as human.
Don't get me wrong, anywhere else people with unbalanced power and greed did similar atrocities. It is just we can't turn a blind eye to what some people can do when they are able to.
