How does custer characterize the nature of native americans

A "Native American" was viewed as having the ability to settle according to the changing surroundings.

They are thought of as simple minded humans who are close to nature and having a major desire to roam freely and hunting in the faraway lands. They are not viewed as interfering with the rights of others but only enjoying their own rights and privileges.

They cannot be judged by the norms applicable to other races of men, irrespective of their occupation or in every sphere of life.
