Oh don't i fricking know. I hear more belly aching coming from Americans than a limbless tongueless, earless person from Uganda

You know, when you overstate things to such a ridiculous degree, you only serve to discredit your argument.

That's how I interpreted the OP as well.

Poor sentence structure and comma use.

You do know that tribes sold their own into bondage correct?

It's not like slave traders invaded the continent and rounded up the indigents...

Does "during WWII" modify all three ethnicities? Because Japanese Americans were taken to fricking internment camps. African Americans were not and neither were Native Americans. Seems pretty damn obvious.

If it doesn't, and you're saying "Japanese Americans during WWII" compared to "African Americans" and "Native Americans" in general, then I would say Native Americans since we all but committed genocide against them. Though 200 some odd years of slavery was pretty bad, too.

Everyone remember where they were when they heard the trail of tears atrocity? I think it was In my 5th period Science class. The principle came over the loud speaker to break the news to the school. One of those moments you never forget where you were. As soon as I got home, I turned on CNN to their breaking news coverage.

Damn, I'm getting too old. I've reread his question 10 times before I understood it. Yeah, I'll go with the Indians. However, I've read articles where the Am. Indian may have come across the peninsula from Russia to north America way back when so I'll just go with Indians.

This entire continent should be full of dark skinned people, like South America, but the white man came and took it all over.
