Cool

JK:

"Americans are living on lands that they stole"??

Could you be more specific? Which lands are you referring to? I'd like to learn about the stolen lands issue.

Thank you.

Talking

Everyone is living on "stolen" land. The Anglo-Saxons "stole" Great Britain from the Celts who "stole" it from the Picts. Look at all of Latin America. A large chunk of the land is inhabited by descendants of the Spanish and Portuguese. Did they "steal" it? What about Canada, Australia, New Zealand...I could go on and on. Russia "stole" Karelia, Siberia, etc. Nice try, JK. There are many more substantial things to criticize the US for than that.

Exclamation

JK you could ask yourself if a people can own the land?
I guess you mean americans killed of indians to get the land. But the indians themself said that you can t own the land. Then did they own it?
No they didnt. They used it in the best way the could while they were alive.
