Dutch to ban burka.

yes i can, the ones that will not even acknowledge what was done, to tell me "we made it better" is an affront to every native on this continent. no one is asking for apologies only recognition of the act and the agreement to stop doing it. as we speak natives in many other countries are being raped and killed by the glorious troops of the united snakes, stop it!

Well, you have a point. The governments of Canada and the US have never really even acknowledged that harm was done some years ago.

I still think it's not fair to blame contemporaries for ancient ills, however it's important to acknowledge that bad shit did indeed happen.

Why sure, lets go back in time and condemn those with ancestors that have done wrong. Fucking Norwegians and their Viking ancestors, Germans, Romans, etc.......

Some people would rather sit back and say "oh woe is me" instead of getting off their lazy asses, put on their nice shiny Adidas shoes and get on with life. Your ancestors may have suffered but you only create your own sufferage today!

ho,
great harm is still being done, Iraq's barefoot natives are being raped as we speak, their land is being put in the pocket of big business.
i don't blame anyone, we are all stupid at the appropriate times, it only needs to be acknowledged so it can stop happening.

As for African Americans and other minorities, great harm was still being done to them until just about 45 years ago. The civil rights movement didnt happen that long ago, and many of those government officials who hosed down peaceful protesters are still alive. So, yes, I'm blaming some of my contemporaries for enforcing "separate but equal" laws not too long ago.
