It's kind of silly. America is here because our ancestors killed a lot of people. A LOT of people. And once they got everything they wanted, and were on top of the world, they said "Alright! Time Out! Killing's bad. Everybody has to be nice now!"
Indians: Now that you guys admit conquering is bad, can we have our land back.
US: Sorry buddy, that was before we called timeout on conquering.
US: *TIME IN!* invades Iraq *TIME OUT*
Syria: Doh! You guys are very quick with your times ins and outs!
What's your point? As time goes on and as we become more civilized, we learn from our mistakes, and things that were thought to be "ok" at one point, like slavery, rape, and genocide, are now seen as the monstrocities that they really are. It's disturbing to see someone saying that killing innocent ppl is a "fine" option just because it was viewed as ok at certain points in history. I'd like to think decent, civilized people have moved past that.

Agreed. I think I need to leave. This is making me feel sick.
Is that so? If I recall correctly, you dont feel sick about the Vatican protecting child molesters. You even defend the vatican. Reconsider your morals.
