Wounded Knee won't happen again.

WK was apparently partly about gun grabbing.
Yet another attempt to balkanize and de-Americanize the place ...make everyone concentrate on their differences, where they “came from,” not where they ARE, or where they should have loyalty to.
Divide and conquer. More of the same old same old.
My ancestors came from a piss poor little town in Germany. I’ve been there to see it. It’s nothing special. I’m DAMN glad those hard headed Germans decided to leave that drab place and relocate to upper state NY so my family could stand a chance and flourish here. It’s nice to know where they came from, but it’s even MORE important to know WHY they left.
As for the Irish side, well, starving, poor and weak is no way to go through life. Wouldn’t you relocate if all you had to eat were rotten, diseased potatoes?
