New Jersey Nonsense

Monday, New Jersey became the first Northern state to apologize for slavery. Here's what New Jersey and other States should be saying when asked to apologize for slavery:

I will NOT apologize for something I didn't do. I will NOT apologize for something you've never experienced. If you have victimized yourself because of something your ancestors went through then it is no one else's fault but yours that you can't lift yourself up and make something of yourself in this greatest nation in the history of humankind. There is no one else to blame but you when you blame your own faults on the past. I say this not only to blacks but to all races. If you have victimized yourself because of something that didn't even happen to you then you deserve to fail. Get over yourself and take advantage of the prosperity and potential the greatest nation ever known has to offer.
