agreed WW2 was germanys fault at that part. people shouldnt have been killed because they beleived in something different from them. and what a waist for hitler. before he went cooocoo he was actually an interesting person to meet. he was an artist and as we all know he knew what to people. beleive it or not somewhere in europe museums actually have some of his peices.
the "straight" society needs to stop giving gays,bi's, and lesbians so much trouble about who they want to love! because of people hatting on it there has been suicides/murders. i mean people like liek the opposite gender are allowed to marry and love right? why cant it be the same for them?
i agree this "labeling" of people is something that should not exsit. the world is divided into so many things because people want to be judgemental about almost everything. people should be able to walk around without be called names, harrased, beaten or any type of hate just because they prabably look odd to another or like the same gender as them (or like both).
i agree it was wrong. even though some of those kids wanted to go to school and learn they wanted to help their families. children should live a good healthy childhood instead of dealing with hardship. but as we all know that cant always be helped. the owners shouldve cared more instead of being greedy.
or the owners couldve got up off their lazy tails and done the work as well. not only that light skinned people thought they were supiror (sorry for spell fail) because the africans lived very different lives and looked different from them.
and to think that some of those kids had to live with a missing limb or a scar for life after working at those places. some kids even picked up nasty habbits like the cigar factory for example. young kids would make the them and even smoke them getting them into the habbit of smoking.
Back in the Progessive Era people were paid very little for working long hours and children got involved int he mix weather they liked it or not. but it was the only way some families were able to pay the bills and put food on the table to feed everyone.
personlly i'm a little neutral about it. but you know i agree with you. someone on the US side couldve easily started something on the ship to make it explode. and it was a VERY stupid way to get into a war that was not needed. it was a recless and ignorant thing on our part and like you said could be avoided easily. maybe even had a allie???
