Re: Virginia apologizes for slavery... why?

We disagree on whether it makes sense to seek redress today. Today's American Indians are living in poverty, mostly as a result of a past wrong, from which we are "benefiting." We should do something about that.
Just off the top of my head... we could start by giving them several sizable states, no? So others would have to move out (or perhaps abide by some other arrangement). Seems fair to me. Not sure it would be enough, but it might be a start.

Who's "we"? In order to "give them several sizable states" the party doing the giving would need to own those several sizable states, don't you agree?
If you want to give a native american your house and property, nobody will stop you.
