[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 4537559, member: 24302"] If the Europeans had never sailed west do you think the Japanese or Chinese would've left the Americas alone? Actually would be called something else because Amerigo Vespucci would've never come over. What if everyone would've stayed right where they were at? Was never going to happen so people need to get over what happened and learn from it. Tearing down statues, renaming everything, cancelling our history is no different than the Nazis burning books. Going forward what kind of world will be built on ignorant mob rule? On envy of others so they must be destroyed? Years ago there was a black journalist who traveled through Africa. His conclusion was he was thankful that his ancestors got enslaved so that he ended up in the U.S. Of course he didn't want to be a slave but his point was people don't know how good they've got it until they see what it's like to have not much at all.
