So, I am loading my groceries in my vehicle in a Safeway parking lot, two guys were standing behind the pickup next to me. The truck had a vanity plate, a Colorado "Heritage?" license plate.......One was bragging to the other guy about being qualified to get the plate. I couldn't resist..........
I asked him what the "Heritage?" plate meant.....he proudly stated that it meant his family had at least four generations in Colorado, and that his relatives in Colorado went back to at least the mid 1800's.

So I said: So you are celebrating the fact, indirectly, that your relatives were responsible for murdering between 30 to 60 Million of MY relatives???????????
The two of them stood there with a weird, some what quizzical look on their faces, totally speechless.
I said I want you to think about that FACT every time you look at one of those plates, including your plate, and
I just walked off..........
