    And a certain segment of the blacks in this country think they have been and are still mistreated.

  • There are a lot of stains on Old Glory but she has always tried to come clean. At this point, what law needs to be passed and what can be done to rectify? The apron of political correctness is a bit late and the time is for unity as one nation under God.

    OJ: Well said.

    The stain of early settlers taking land from the inhabitants at all cost IMO was the start of pushing the inhabitants to take up arms against our forefathers in order to maintain their way of life.

  • Sitting Bull was shot and killed Dec.15 during the Ghost Dance , settlers mistook it for a War Dance . As the tribe was marched toward the rez , it was killed . 1973 we fought back too , I got a vacation in a Federal caged hotel out of that one .

    What's done is done . We'll defend but not demand as certain races feel they have to do -- push their self down everyone's throats as if they're special .

    Thnx for remembering semo...

    Well said guys! Maybe a certain race would like to be put on some worthless ground and have to just do the best they can.

    Would probably change some of the b s coming from them.

    Might make them appreciate what they had and actually realize some races are even worse off!
