In the interest of being fair and balanced.

I agree. I never thought I would ever hear her say anything I agreed with.

Omar refuses to back vote on Armenian Genocide.

And she’s not even from Turkey.

One of 11 who vote no or present vs 405 who voted yes.

People from MN must be so proud.

You can't fix stupid!

A true acknowledgement of historical crimes against humanity must include both the heinous genocides of the 20th century, along with earlier mass slaughters like the transatlantic slave trade and Native American genocide, which took the lives of hundreds of millions of indigenous people in this country”,

Not to minimize what occurred to Native Americans in the US and all of North America, but there were never hundreds of millions. Estimates for population pre Columbus are about 3 -18 million. I tend to believe the lower estimates from a book I am reading titled "Guns On the Early Frontiers". I was surprised by estimates on the numbers of indigenous peoples from contemporary accounts. I also was amazed to learn that Native Americans were supplied with great numbers of firearms from the earliest arrival and colonization efforts of Europeans in North America and were well armed.
