    TBH I never expected the perps to be black. It will quite interesting to unpack their motives and put it into some historical perspective regarding purposeful, inadvertent or ignorant destruction by European colonial invaders in, uh… everywhere else in the world.

      Wanna know how I know you glanced at the thumbnail and didn’t actually open the article before writing this comment?

        My little phone didn’t have the pixels to show the picture properly.

        I’ve owned up to my mistake above.

        And yes now that I look closer I can see their hands. Oops.

          Good on you for owning the mistake. I will say that even if they were black the premise of your original argument provides no justification for what was done.

            And you shall know me by the trail of monuments to my own incompetence that I leave in my wake…

            Now as to my ‘argument’; it wasn’t a justification, it was more a point of relativism and curiosity.
