Nope, let's judge them by today's standards and forget what good they did. I mean, the hell with our 3rd President who started our westward expansion with the Louisiana Purchase and started us on the road to great nation status. Nope, let's judge everyone as harshly as possible so we don't ever hurt anyone's little feelings… poor, poor babies.
My goodness I can't believe this is the USA I grew up in. I'm sorry for what I wrote but I feel so annoyed by all this PC crap. It's like thought police are walking around and micro aggression police are walking and feelings police too. Not everyone believes the same thing, time to get over that. Not everyone likes everyone else, time to get over that too.
When is this going to end?
