He just got confused talking. I am sure he knew that question was coming and he had this answer already practiced. He just fucked it up.
I agree with his quote though. I am fucking tired of hearing about and being blamed for something that happened hundreds of years ago. It's stupid as hell.
Maybe we can go dig up the graves of all those that were responsible and spit on them. If they were buried with jewelry or anything of value, those can be taken for reparations. Will that make anyone happy?
Same as natives bitching about our land being jacked by whitey. Get over it, that was 100s of years ago. It's always the same people bitching and moaning at reservation, hating whitey while they live off TAP.
Get over it....or do what the smart natives did and open a casino in Oklahoma (only natives can do that) and take the money back from whitey like that lol
