What do you mean starting to become? We've been as bad as the terrorists for years. As a country we've killed thousands of civilians throughout our history. The Trail of Tears, The Filipino Insurection, Hiroshima and Nagasaki (like we discussed earlier), Vietnam, etc. We aren't as nice of a country as most people who live here would like to think.

Fair enough. But I am right: we really are no better than they are. And you forgot slavery.

I was just trying to make sure everyone who read this realized that the USA killing civilians, or making civilians suffer really isn't such a recent change in our country's actions. As for my list... there are quite a few things I left off. Yes, slavery would be one... but looking at the world from a late 1700's perspective (and yes I know that slavery in the US existed through to the mid 1800's), slavery was just another fact of life. You can't really think that Thomas Jefferson really thought that his life was as equal as those of his slaves. Yeah... On another not quite so P.C. note, Woodrow Wilson was a member of the KKK. All the great things you learn in History classes/books. All of a sudden, I just lost my passion to write in this post. <insert more retarded facts here>.
