And what about the persons of color who were screwed for centuries?

They where done wrong. Does that mean we should do wrong to a new set of people?

No, we have to right the wrong. Its the same principle used with environment disasters. This generation pays for the mistakes of past generations. You probably don't agree and think the disaster should stay in place until someone volunteers to take care of the problem. Nonetheless, that's the way it works.

You don't like it when the white male gets screwed but apparently, you think it was okay to screw everyone else but the white male for centuries.

I don't like anyone to get screwed this way? Why screw anyone? For revenge? Revenge often isn't a very positive motivation esp. revenge against innocent people.

Its not revenge.....its doing unto others the way you want others to do unto you.

Certainly, a niggardly approach to life.

Certainly not.

You may think so but that would be wrong.

I find it interesting that you have started to use the word niggardly. I don't have a problem with it and I know it isn't a racist word but a city council member (sorry don't remember what city) was pushed to resign after using that word because he supposedly offended people.

I like the word. It kills two birds with one stone. What city was so stupid?

I don't share your values

Apparently not.

Aaahhhhhh........we finally agree on something. <g>
