That's a good point bob.
I wonder if when people are referring to the good old days they're forgetting that the original inhabitants of this land were nearly wiped out and we're not even considered human beings for a long time, that women were second class citizens for a long time, homophobia was a common occurrence and that almost everyone non anglo who came in copped racism.
I'm sure some things genuinely were better then but it does sound a a lot nastier to me too.
