    How do you know that I'm a white person?

    Who's making assumptions now?

    BTW, you can't deny that the American Indian was treated as badly if not worse than blacks, can you? All you have is smartass remarks and a victim's
    mentality.

    Who said I was responding to you in that post. You're the one making assumptions. I don't give a flip what race you are.

    I'll repeat:

    mentality.

    I'll add to that, an uncanny ability to dodge questions that make you uncomfortable.

    Getting a little upset, are we. Calm down. The answer is yes i can deny it. Indians haven't had as bad a history as blacks. Btw, there are indian based scholarships and preferences also, but that doesn't bother you, right.

    Then you know very little about American History. You know what suits you.


    I'm not particularly in favor of quotas or preferences based upon anybody's race. However, I will say this: being that we now squat upon
    land that once belonged to the American Indian (who had it forcibly taken away from him), I would say that the American Indian is as entitled to
    preferential treatment as anybody. He could still be living on that land today,
    whereas blacks who scream about reparations are basically just trying to make a buck off their ancestor's sweat and blood.

    I know what suits me. Thats it. Are you freaking kidding me. What happened Indians happened to their ancestors too, but they're entitled and we aren't. You have just lost all credibility and respectability. Just turn your computer off.

    nobody is entitled to anything because of their ancestors. this is like caveman tribalism. it matters none who your ancestors were.

    nobody can seem to understand this. they are christian because their parents were, or muslim because their parents were, or feel entitled because their grandparents had it bad, or feel slighted because their ancestors 300 years ago were slaves.

    well get over it people, learn to think for yourselves. stop caring about your stupid races and ethnicities and religions. it is all based on accident of birth, forget about your dumbass tribal mentality and live in today.

    That's the most sensible post on this whole thing I've seen yet.

    It can't be sensable to you. Martin has an opinion. Ancestors shouldn't factor. I have a different opinion. But you G_Man said indians were more entitled than us when both our ancestors suffered persecution. How is that?
