Stefan Before "white Americans" arrived and "stole" the land from native Americans, the latter were often stealing it from each other. If you live in a country that doesn't have a period in history when it stole the land of someone else, I'd surely like to know what country that is. Conquest and sometimes reconquest is part of every civilization's history. But with regard to Meigs, most Americans don't like dictatorial decision making, particularly when done in the secretive, sneaky way that Meigs was closed. Those of us who had the opportunity of using Meigs miss it, and we don't forget because we don't want more GA friendly airports suffering the same end. |
