I was open in hearing whar you had to say until the comment you made above. As far as I'm concerned, all your credibility went down the crapper. Passing judgement on every person on this website is like school on Sunday.....
No Class.
What amazes me about your quasi intellectual commentary is that YOUR commentary smacks of racism and intolerance. I don't know of anyone in their right mind that chooses a symbol because they disrespect whatever that symbol may be. But somehow you have decided that UND's recognition of your forefathers honorable heritage is racist. PLEASE, understand one thing, your anger is painfully obvious, maybe you should redirect it in a more productive manner that will help to better society and make a meaningful difference instead of taking up a "cause" that only reveals that you obviously have issues you need to deal with in a more constructive and honorable way.
One other ovservation if you will. What's in the past is exactly that, in the past. History is full of stories of people being taken advantage of, it's NOT right, but remember one thing. Neither you nor I were there, therefore we are not responsible for what many would classify as "your" people, or "my" people. Small minded people judge others by the color of a person's skin, decent thinking individuals judge others by their actions.
Like I said, I was open to hearing your point of view, but after reading your comment above I will not be back on this thread to hear anything else you have to say, so no need in replying to this.
