So very true. I do feel that some groups in our society need to get over themselves and stop blaming things that happened in the past, for there own failings.
My own country for example, was basically destroyed my the English. The cruelty they inflicted on us, was comparable to anything done to the Jews in WW2 or the African Americans durring slavery. Yet When Americans call us English, we just roll our eyes and calmly tell them we are Scottish. Then we ask them what its like to be Canadian.
My point is, i could choose to hate the English for what they did, i could blame them for all the failings in my life and to be honest, some Scots do, But really, what would be the point? The English people who live in England now didnt do all those nasty things, it happened over 200 years ago.
