It did happen here, but before we were the United States.
No one from the ACLU has come to me, (yet.)
The murders are all dead too. Who do I sue?

PBS aired a show the other day that more or less proved that Salem witches executed were under the influence of ergot, a grain fungus that acts as a hallucinogenic and seizure-inducer. Happened in Europe, too.

Judging from the ACLU model of slavery reparations, it doesn't matter that the original offender who murdered your ancestor is long dead. Just find a class of people that somewhat resemble the original Caucasian Puritans. Sue the Amish!

One of my ancestors was hung as a witch in Salem. As she died she cursed the people of MA saying, "May you be infested with Kennedys, Kerrys, and Franks."

whew...i am glad that your family had nothing to do with the reign of dukakis!

"She turned me into a newt."

"A newt?"

"I got better."
