I don't know that it's really possible for any of us to know the kind of person we would be, were we to be born in that time. And it's pretty damned disingenuous to climb into your ivory tower and dish out judgment on those who did.
What I do know is how I feel about the issue
now.
And anyway, given that I have been told more than once that I would've murdered those Arkansans at Mountain Meadows, your racist accusations are a little tame anyway. You haven't lived until you've accused me of being a murderer.
Nice try though, seq.
