Well they are up and at it again.  Somebody is disrespecting our grief.  Some people have the audacity to want to built a monument of the one thing that gave us all that grief, or so they told us that was what did it.  Personally I haven't gotten over the fall of buildings that defied the physics of gravity.  Those pesky Muslims want to build their church in the neighborhood of the twin towers, and America is about to have a cow over it, and mad 'cause Obama mentioned the constitution's stand on freedom of religion etc.  Well what the hell, we are ignoring the right to bear arms and the babies born here being Americans too, so why not chunk freedom of religion out with the babies bathwater?
     Well excuse me up righteous America, but where were all you guys when we gathered up the Japanese, stole their money and land and shoved them all in internment camps?  What happened to that good old American "innocent until proven guilty" law, and thou shall not covet they neighbors possessions?  What happened when we gathered up all the Indians and packed them unceremoniously in camps, took their children and dared them to speak their own language, massacred their food sources, then built any and everything we wanted too on their sacred ground, that is after we dug up their ancestors, and disregarded the treaties we held with them.  What the hell, their just Injuns!  Where were you and your self righteous protests then?  Oh, I see, the rest of us don't matter?  If I were you I wouldn't get them too angry, they can read history too.
