Yeah, off topic. Nevertheless, just to take this example, returning the lands claimed, even after adjudication, would at this time be awkward in a number of respects. It seems unnecessary, however, to characterize the decisions as “silly.” Especially given the fact of the genocide committed on native Americans by people coming from Europe. We would do well to reflect on that fact and on what justice might require as a response. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Eric Weir Decatur, GA USA eew...@bellsouth.net "Our world is a human world." - Hilary Putnam -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
