Those in glass houses and all.
Yes, we treated ours just as badly. We also locked up our first nations/indians/natives in Catholic reserve systems that proved quite detrimental to their well-being. Nobody is perfect, and both our countries have a bunch of growing to do. At the same time, they're both pretty awesome places to live and try to make better for everyone.
