October 31, 2005:

The wealthy tourist's story about the natives -- indigenous people -- who are grateful to the Europeans and Australians for coming to their island and forbidding cannibalism and "revenge killings."

People are good people. They strongly feel the need to morally justify what they know in their hearts is wrong. The destruction of indigenous cultures.

It's as if they're trying to claim that the people said to them, "We really didn't like our culture. Thank you so much for saving us from ourselves."
