Whatever you might say about yourself... uneducated... is one thing I know you are not. We are all uneducated in certain ways. Sometimes we have our minds made up and nothing anyone can do will change it..even if we are wrong. The thing that hurts us is letting ourselves believe certain things just because someone else says so. The assault gun thing. Heck a Brown Bess Musket was an assault weapon at one time as was a Springfield musket and an 03 Springfield. The words assault weapon were probably coined by one of the Brady bunch for all I know. But they sure spout that phrase all the time now. Makin us believe they are evil just because of what they are called or because they say so.
Just because there are a bunch of apologists in the world today apologising for the Civil war or slavery or whatever doesn't make what is happening right. Even people who should know better want to say the civil war was all about slavery. I never owned a slave...and neither did my father. Why should I apologize for slavery or pay reparations to people just because they want me too. Get over it and get on with life. Don't forget ...but get over it is what I say. I ain't preachin to you cause I think you feel this way too. Just ranting I guess....but not at you!
I feel bad for Zumbo in some respects...but I think he would have to understand the fact that we have to pay for our actions or words if we are wrong..and get kudos for the same things if we are right. He just stepped on his own tongue....or whatever!! and now the fiddler wants to be paid!!
