[QUOTE]Originally posted by First of Two: [QB] Good grief, the breast-beating self-flagellation of PC rears its ugly head. Perhaps to make up for it, we can name a ship the USS White Oppressor, or something. Geez, I mean shese ships are named for explorers. Jerks, maybe, but still explorers. Sure, we need some ships named after Zheng He (China to Africa, Arabia, and India, 1405-1433) and other folks like him, but of course, the USA people whom the show is primarily made for might not find those names as easily recognizable (or pronouncable). It's not a deliberate attempt to render irrelevant what happened to the Native American populace. And virtually everyone sensible outside of Section 31 found their actions as reprehensible as we did. Sure, the Federation Council may not have wanted to give the Founders the cure, and that was wrong, but the reason is understandable. They were scared. There was a good chance that they were all going to be wiped out at any time. And in that situation, one rule applies: "Better you than me." [/QB][/QUOTE]
