10. The Puritan militia captain John Mason regarded the Native Americans of southern New England as
O peaceful people with whom profitable trade was possible.
O the enemies of God who deserved to lose their land.
o the rightful owners from whom land should be bought.
o viable partners in the planting of new English settlements..

the enemies of God who deserved to lose their land.

Explanation:

John Mason believed that Native Americans should be subjugated and forced to do the will of the English crown. This was because he saw the natives as impure, inferior and beings that did not deserve negotiation, because they were enemies of God and prevented the progress of the crown's objectives.

He threatened several indigenous tribes and made them serve him as he pleased. His motto was "money in one hand and a sword in the other" which can say a lot about his aggressive attitude towards Native Americans.
