Distruction of the Indies

My own view is that the spaniards were to hard on the indians. Though i concede that they didn't know any different, I still maintain that they could have gone about it differently. For example when it states "This is a most tender and effeminate people, and so imbecile andunequal-balanced temper, that they are altogether incapable of hardlabour." Although some might object that the spaniards were just there to do their job to take over the country, i reply that if they were just a little more passionate about the issue they would have had more cooperativeness. The issue is important because it dictated the whole future of the americas.
