Yes he was, u see thats the problem with America & its history to the present time that ppl fight against eachother, ppl forget about their roots, heritage and ancestry, thats y its a melting pot, they dont have respect for their origins and their name and therefore lose it, no wonder the Americans are shambles!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

If you go to a country, and you pay taxes and make a living, what kind of person would you be to fight against them!? I realize that today there are Moslems that do this in the United States, but back then there was a sense of honor!. If you were going to fight against something, you wouldn't live under its protection first!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
