The fact that you can list them so easily shows I’m correct. Mistakes happen in war and passion can overrule reason and people crack. Regardless all you have to do is head over to the Ukrainian thread and review how the Russian military is operating before attacking this countries military.
Attack? Are you nuts? I didn't do all of those war crimes, the military did.
You are the one posting your google searches to point out American mistakes made under the combat stresses of war. What are you trying to prove?
You said:
Who you taking too?
Sorry, Joker.
Badly? Millions of men and woman are and have been put under the stress of war for decades. You find a few incidents and condemn the whole country. Sad.
Hes either banned or he's deleted all his posts.
Those who misbehave in war get their due, many are in Leavenworth. Go through history and you will find the US military is often as bad as others, the list is long and shameful.
I was in a boy choir from 1970-75. Self funded, not affiliated with any religious or govt institutions. We did a number of bus tours around the western states and one of these was through sothern cal, arizona and Nevada. We had no money so one night we shared a dorm with 30-40 forced residents of an Apache boarding school while the 35 other residents of that dorm slept on cots in the gym. There was no melding of cultures in that dorm. We were white privileged teen goofballs stuck on a bus all day happy to be without our minders playing grab ass and telling jokes and the other guys were fucking fuming and outraged on the other side of the dorm. When the lights went out within 30 seconds I had two Apache boys trapping me in my top bunk and one of them had a knife at my throat advising me to advise the others on my group to shut the fuck up understand we were not welcome and their mates had to make room for us. They would respectfully listen to us the next day but they were doing it because they were forced to. It wasn’t hate, it was anger and helplessness. I saw that in the eyes of every Native American we saw on the trip even on top of the Hopi mesa where we were driven up in federal res vehicles the morning after a serious event for the people living there. I will likely never feel so out of place and invasive anywhere else as much as I felt there. I also felt a peace and reverence it took me years and a junior college psych course with a prof who was part cherokee to understand. The fact that some of the tribes have retained some identity, language, and custom is a miracle.
You "live in the past". How convenient.
So, acknowledging the past, including the really ugly shit we'd like to pretend never happened, has morphed into "condemn(ing) the whole country".
You are really twisting what I wrote. I said I DON’T live in the past as in 150 years ago and longer. What happened to the native tribes is history. You want to talk about their current problems fine. But acting like the settlers of America were any different than the colonists/ invaders of any other area of the earth throughout history is wrong. In all fairness it’s amazing they were not wiped out completely. I guess the Americans of the time had more compassion than previously shown.
Were did I pretend it didn’t happen? I freely acknowledged it in multiple posts.
Eh, the audio recordings could be anyone reading from the Random Paragraph Generator.
