Technically that is false.
Primitive native Americans had no concept of property rights. Individual tribes existed within cultural areas akin to US states, but without official borders (native Americans didn't have the ability to make maps since they were still living in a stone age). If a tribe began to encroach on another tribe they were not at peace with, it was war.
European pioneers adhered to native American land control customs and the two sides went to war. Europeans were simply 10,000+ years more advanced than the natives, so we won the wars.
And if you want to somehow make the argument that whitey should let Mexicans into the US because we stole the land from natives, how do you think the Spanish got Mexico?
