Apology

There are some who want an apology from Congress for its part in slavery 200 years ago. Why don’t they issue an apology to the Indians for Columbus coming to America? Why don’t they issue an apology to Mexico for taking Texas from them? Why don’t they issue an apology to the Chinese for using them to build railroads? Some people’s lives are so mundane that the only way they can find purpose in them is to dwell in the distant past. Since they have no skills or ambition to change the present or affect the future, they live under the delusion that they can change the past. Since most people know the past cannot be changed and do not worry about it, it give these misfits free reign to carry out their idiocy. They should learn from past mistakes and then move forward instead of backward.
