this has nothing to do with in any way stifling your anger, fear or sadness Kathy. It is an issue that you (and many others) care deeply about

For you to suggest people wouldnt care as much nomatter what the race of those scouts tragically killed is enough to make others angry and sad too, and is a ridiculous accusation on a board designed to be caring and supportive. You want people to care about the native feelings, yet you arent showing care for theirs by making a very inflammatory accusation which Curious correctly called you on, both as a member and as a mod.

As you have now turned this thread from being one of rallying support for a petition that has merit, in to something completely different, I can see it going nowehere but down and so yes, sadly I am locking it.
