The House on Tuesday apologized to black Americans for the "fundamental injustice, cruelty, brutality and inhumanity of slavery and Jim Crow" segregation.
I'd like to thank Congress for making an apology to a bunch of dead people. I wonder if any of them heard it?
In 2005, the Senate apologized for failing to pass anti-lynching laws.
I didn't know it was ever legal to hang people of any color.
Who did the apology go out to, more dead people?
Now what about the white, brown, yellow and red skinned slaves, when do they get an apology? It seems that apologizing to one race and excluding others who suffered the same injustices is racist.
Next Congress is going to apologize to woman for not letting them vote until 1934 and then only allowing the literate ones to vote.
So if you were alive before 1934 and old enough to vote and couldn't Congress is sorry.
Then Congress is going to apologize to the Indian Nations for killing them and stealing their land. This one might take a bit longer to get passed because most of Congress is in debt to the Indian owned casinos and are using the apology as a bargaining chip.
Thank you Big Brother for saying you're sorry.
Me I wasn't born for any of this so I'm not apologizing to anyone.
