It was mainly the military, government personnel and rich landowners that did that to the natives, not your average poor guy coming to the U.S. to make a living.

Your average person is not a consquistador but I doubt the settlers were too concerned with the well-being of the natives either.

Apathy is not the same thing as direct action, though. Besides, a lot of the deaths were also caused by diseases, so that's a problem that shouldn't be nearly as big today.
