Looking for logic in all the wrong places
This is snipped from a LTTE in today's newspaper:

. . .I would also remind you that it was Americans who recognized the evils of slavery and it was several hundred thousand white Americans who bled and died to free their dark-skinned brothers from slavery.

It is only in the U.S. that there exists within a nation's borders, sovereign nations belonging to the native peoples. What other nation on earth has ever done this? . . .



Care to imagine the caliber of conversation during the recent campaigns?

1. Um, well, a lot of them have done that.
I'm really not sure how to respond to that snip.
