T2W - this has to be one of the worst arguments I have ever heard. By using this argument, I should be able to go back to Georgia and kick off the people that are on the property that the U.S. government stole from my family.
Would that be justice?
Also, any black person whose ancestors were slaves should be able to make you, (assuming you are white), their slave.
That would be justice too, in your world.
Ridiculous

To answer your question I am not white.

Also I am not using justice in the same context you are. I am simply saying that when the majority forces their will upon the minority in matters of personal freedom then when the minority becomes the majority they will do the same.... Playing by the same rule book, if you will. We are called to MERCY, especially when we are in the majority. We have failed to live up to that and I can only hope that this new anti-Christian majority will be kinder to us than we have been to them.

What personal freedom does the current minority not have?
