unless they've been taught to hate, and intend to treat people as the Slaves were treated.
Then, yeah, they should feel badly.
We (they) got way out of the lane when this was the topic-of-the-day for the shit-stick shit-stirrers. Make it about "ME!" My FEELINGS!!!
Now, we're WAY off in the high weeds, being "led" by imbeciles.
History CAN BE a Teachable Moment if you're able to listen... and ... think.
