Sounded good till I got to here:

""Once we come to that recognition, maybe we will also recognize steps we need to do to get rid of the lingering effects of it on the people," Exum said."

What else can possibly be done? How many more programs and holidays are required?

A check for 40 acres and a mule? :shrug:

Pretty funny, coming from a free state.

I thought this was about apologizing to the taxpayers who are forced to support all the social programs. That's where the real slavery in MD comes from.

My first ancestors in America we sold as slaves by the British crown in Oxford, MD. Where's my $$$?

What do you expect from the Democrats?

My grandfather came on the boat from Greece, does that mean someone owes me something? I want restitution. Im not sure for what, but I want it and I want it now.

I think the first step should be setting up a booth at the St. Charles Towne Centre that says "Qurious, you rock!" And give her 5 minutes in a steel cage with Andy.

I would take the 40 acres glady, but I don't need a mule. I got a wife.

What a coincidence. She doesn't need a jackass because she's got YOU.

Maryland lawmakers approved an apology Monday for the state's role in the slave trade, expressing "profound regret" that it once "trafficked in human flesh."

Who are they apologizing to? I don't think any of those that were slaves are around anymore to hear the apology.

 

[Dork]

Who are they apologizing to? I don't think any of those that were slaves are around anymore to hear the apology.

This whole apology thing is rediculous. I wonder how much time and money was spent on this issue. Who are the nuts who actually think they are due an apology?

That reminds me again that smow season is over and I need to bring back my old AV or get a new one. I don't have my jackass one on this computer.

It's what I keep trying to tell you good folks. You are getting exactly what you voted for.

I do believe Jazz has a pic of you in your lingerie ensemble you could use as your AV...
