Re: The U.S.A.
There is a class of person living and thriving in this country that is permanently offended, persistently outraged but will accept that bad language and a foul mouth is acceptable....even the norm.
I also worked alongside people of all races and creeds, looked after women of all races and creeds.....so I don't see how I can be responsible for the deeds that took place three or four centuries ago.
Me apologising for such actions makes me a hypocrite and it devalues any kind of future apology for something that I did do.
It is clear to see that from then to now life has changed, people have changed....and might that be because of the past history.
It is time someone pointed out to these thugs that it was black tribal chiefs who sold young men captured in skirmishes with other tribes to the white men in return for goods.
This fact is conveniently forgotten/ignored by both black and white protesters because it does not serve their agenda.
