I don't have words immediately coming to mind for this. I think I'm going to lay down soon and see what others come up with.

People whose land was invaded by murderous colonists weren't peaceful?
Also your example is fucking Pocahontas? Not only is it a children's movie, it's some serious settler whitewashing if anything.
Pretty sure the girl was like 13, too. Like the real girl, the Pohwatan girl.
She was definitely underage, although almost everything related to John Smith was made up for the movie.
I always thought this was by far the weakest of the 90s Disney movies, but after finding out about the real, not so romantic story I haven't been able to watch it at all.
Scalping was done everywhere in the world for as long as there have been people. But it was Europeans who put bounties on Native Americans by offering money for their scalps. Usually an adult male's scalp was worth twice that of women and children scalps. The US government paid a bounty for it all the same.
So it's no wonder Native Americans retaliated by scalping white colonizers alive. You'd do the same if your family was murdered for less than the price of a horse.
