So what you are saying is that since I am not in the fields picking cotton that I have no right to complain. Please clarify before I respond harshly.[/B]
I don't mean you, I mean people in general. But yes, if something happened to my ancestors, it happened to them, not me. And while I can be angered (or proud if it's a good thing) by thing in the past, the suffering/glory belonged to the people who lived it. For example, people who think they are entitled to monetary reparations for past events that happened to their great-great-great-great aunt when she was a child. Come on!
