Sort of the same as King George then?
the notion that slavery was the worst of all human conditions. Haha. How about you and your loved ones try being slaves for a week and you tell me what you think of it.
People like you just don't ever think, I guess. I would much rather have been Thomas Jefferson's slave than a coal miner in Pennsylvania. And southern slavery was nirvana compared to what my great-grandmother had to go through 70 years ago or so. You see she was deprived of all of her possessions, taken from her home, branded, shipped off somewhere in a cattle car to a camp someplace in a foreign land where she subsisted on meager rations until even that was too inconvenient for her keepers so they killed her. Some of her children suffered the same fate, but it was probably okay with you because she never got to see them after the start of all of this. Don't you ever give me that slavery cr@p!
WELL GEE the Slave states insisted on that provision.
And the northern States AGREED to it.
Why you, being a Northerner, have that need is a mystery to me.
Because, as I have said before, I read. One of things I cited earlier in this thread actually I learned reading James McPhearson who is the most mainstream of Civil War academicians.

Ironically the crown viewed the colonies as independent states, a true (little r) republican view of governance than the Federalists and certainly more than Lincoln's empire.
Silly comment. First of all most slaves were not Thomas Jefferson's slaves. Second of all, coal miners could QUIT. Slaves could not. If they tried and ran away to the North they'd be sent back to be whipped because the slave states DIDN'T CARE ABOUT "STATE'S RIGHTS" when it came to Northern states rights not to be complicit in their evil institution.

It's "probably okay with me" that your family died in a Nazi concentration camp? Is that what you just said to me? What in the hell is your problem?
Now since you think slavery is not so bad when can I expect you to come over and clean my bathroom? Do I have to pick you up from the airport? That might be a problem for me.
