Also, the ancestors argument is ignorant, and frankly anti-American. It's a sentiment that is sadly shared by a large number of people. The ancestors argument is why Native Americans (I myself have Lacota blookd running through my veins) get free education, free hunting rights, and allowances that the rest of us are not. A few generations ago I can see it, but today, it's just as much bullshit as amnesty for illegal immigrants. I have English blood in me too, I may have had ancestors that owned black slaves. You know what? That's not MY fucking problem. I don't have black slaves. I DO have black friends. Why in the name of sanity should ANYONE be held accountable for the actions of their ancestors? Are we going to ostricize Germans because of Hitler? That's JUST as stupid as your argument.
As a clarification, I am not attacking you nor am I calling you, yourself, stupid. I am simply disagreeing vehemently with your logic.
