You know George I've gotten too old and too tired to care what people think of me. If I am a racist so be it. They are not going to change my mind of my convictions, formed by education and personal experiences by calling me names.

My Grandfathers did not fight to keep slaves. For the most part they could have cared less for the slave. They were all volunteers in 1861. They fought for higher ideals than the trival desire of owning slaves. They fought for Independence, self rule, the Principals of God given rights in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, and the protection of their homes and families.

I've got nothing to apologize for. So don't ask me to pay any reparations by using my tax payments to do so.
