   Hmm.. Good old days you might think. Not anymore! You people aren't the   
   Americans who developed such thoughts.   
      
   And even they, the "founding fathers".. they sucked bad. As the dead   
   American Natives. The live ones too, you know, the ones that one day   
   will devour you.   
      
   Problem is your species. It is your species that's outdated.
