I'am saying.....if we didn't have those evil people to begin with...we wouldn't be talking about this right now.....let me ask you something...have you ever wanted something so bad, that you were willing to take it from someone? Take it...even though it WASN'T yours to take? Have you ever wanted something someone else had, so bad that you were willing to do anything to get it...even kill?
I haven't!! You don't seem to be that kind of person IMO!!
No I have never coveted something someone else had if there is something I'm impressed with that someone else has i ask where they got it and go buy one for myself, but that isn't a logical example in the context of the Native Americans and the land hungry US government of several 100 years ago.IMHO
No one disagrees that "those evil people" shouldn't have been allowed to do what they did. no one disagrees that some of the history of this world shouldn't have happened . But most everyone is aware that "those evil people" did exist and did do what they did and that some of the history of this nation and of the world did happen and aren't inclined use the fact that it did happen to stay angry instead of acknowledging the changes that have taken place and the ongoing striving of most of the world to bring about still more changes and better understanding so history won't repeat it's self.
