Two hundred years ago, white United States-ians were happily “importing” dark-skinned people to work in their fields and fix their meals.

Now the same sort of white people are frantically grabbing and imprisoning the very same dark-skinned people.

What the hell, white people? What the hell?

My daughter and SIL were both stationed at Mtn. Home for several years. They also trained French pilots…until they discovered they were spying. I’m sure that won’t be an issue with the Qataris.
