Blue Buffalo:
[addressing the village]
He wants to become a Sioux. To take Yellow Moccasin as his squaw and to adopt Silent Tongue as their son. But his skin is enemy!
Pvt. O'Meara, 6th Virginia Volunteers Sharpshooter:
I'm not an American.
Blue Buffalo:
But your skin is white!
Pvt. O'Meara, 6th Virginia Volunteers Sharpshooter:
But my heart is with the Sioux.
Blue Buffalo:
Why?
Pvt. O'Meara, 6th Virginia Volunteers Sharpshooter:
Because I love your people. I've learn from Yellow Moccasin that a man cannot live alone. he must have allegiance to a people... to a nation. In my heart my nation is Sioux.
Blue Buffalo:
Would you kill the Americans in battle?
Pvt. O'Meara, 6th Virginia Volunteers Sharpshooter:
[pauses for a moment]
Yes.
Blue Buffalo:
Are there any objections?
[waits for a reply, there is none]
Blue Buffalo:
Mix the blood!
Pvt. O'Meara, 6th Virginia Volunteers Sharpshooter:
Before you mix the blood, I must speak of my faith.
Blue Buffalo:
Faith? What do you mean?
Pvt. O'Meara, 6th Virginia Volunteers Sharpshooter:
I'm a Christian. I will live as a Sioux... I will hunt as a Sioux... I will fight and I will even die as a Sioux. But my God is a Christian God. I can't serve your greater spirit.
Blue Buffalo:
We respect a man who respects his faith. This God of yours is He... the giver and creator of all life? Do you look to Him for the cure of disease and illness to make you strong and healthy?
Pvt. O'Meara, 6th Virginia Volunteers Sharpshooter:
I do. Yes.
Blue Buffalo:
How many Gods do you serve? Do you have more than One?
Pvt. O'Meara, 6th Virginia Volunteers Sharpshooter:
No, no. Just one.
Blue Buffalo:
Just one. Americans, are they all Christians?
Pvt. O'Meara, 6th Virginia Volunteers Sharpshooter:
No, some are and some are other denominations like your religions.
Blue Buffalo:
You are a Christian? Will you kill Christians in battle?
Pvt. O'Meara, 6th Virginia Volunteers Sharpshooter:
[pauses]
Well... my nation... fought... for liberty against the United States... And Christianity is always the brother of liberty in all wars.
Blue Buffalo:
We have the same God but a different name... Mix the blood!
