The thing is, there is a very large Armenian population here in So. Cal. If you want to see something that will really piss you off, go the Welfare office in Glendale, and watch the steady stream of Armenians pulling in the parking lot, and getting out of their BMW's and Mecedes Benz luxury cars........I'm not kidding. It goes on all day long, 5 days a week. And it's been going on for many years. They are masters at using and abusing the system.No, I think there was a point to the OP. And I hope the thread starter was being tongue-in-cheek with the racist bit. If not, well the thread isn't about racism. The thread is about entitlement. Not just entitlement but hypocritical entitlement of the sort that demands payment for wrongs done to our ancesters but no responsibility to repair any harm our own ancesters might have done.
The OP is correct that what was then is not now. We can't correct most of what was then. We can assume responsibility to make our now a better time and place.
Well here's hoping I was wrong.
But I think the; "They do it all the time cuz they are too Goddamn lazy to work. Any excuse for a free hand out."
Kinda clenches the racist angle.
Not if it was said with sarcasm to make a point. One of the problems with the internet is we are deprived of body language, voice inflection, facial expression, etc. So I'll give the member benefit of the doubt and opportunity to explain.
But again, even if she is racist, the thread isn't about that. And I think the topic worthy of discussion so hope it can be discussed.
