People can go on wallowing in the problems of the past and make life miserable for themselves and everyone around them. As I was told one time. Quit your bellyachin and get on with your life and I did.

I'll remember that.
But your mentality is why there has been little to no healing about the history of this country.
But I would like to see you tell that to my father, who witnessed family members hanging from trees burned for trying to desegregate schools. The insensitivity is always what pours salt in wounds that are trying to heal. It is not the first thing I have read on the thread from you that was....less than becoming. Such is life.
