@Applewood Ooh, I didn't get it, either.  I'm guessing slavery, no vote for women and non-property owners?

Yes but, they could get away with an 'Africa' themed prom, even though slavery is rampant all over Africa today, right now, not 200 years ago. And all across Africa, Asia, and the Middle East women are beaten, raped, kidnapped, bought and sold, legally in open markets today, right now. So tell me again how bad America was 200 years ago. I'd really love to hear about it.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

This insensitivity argument is an excuse to advance the ultimate goal of eradicating history.  There is an element in this country that wants to keep all of us -- but particularly our young people -- ignorant of history so that the people can be more easily controlled once  a dictatorship takes over.
