That is actually a very independent libertarian minded stement, Ray. Though,
I do in principle think that there should be some atonement; everything that
we have done since the 1960s has made the plight of the black folk worse.
The black folk who have achieved are the ones who quit listening to the race
hustlers.

The Indians are different. We had a natural right to conquer the country,
I suppose. All people have conquered other peoples in one way or the other,
over time. But, as a gov't we made 'Treaties". The Constitution says that
we must honor those "Treaties". Have you ever been to a reservation (not a
flashy , gaudy Casino -- a real reservation). I'd be p*ssed if I was an
Indian....
