In 1775 slavery was the norm through out the world and had been since before written history. Our revolution was the beginning of the fight to end slavery which still continues today mainly in the islamic nations. Even today in this nation there are forms a slavery in prostitution and the illegal worker trade. The fight for freedom and liberty goes on.

Saying that Don-O isn't a liberal but is probabaly just an upset Dylan fan isn't an attack in my book.
Your mileage may vary.

Susan Sarandon and Whippie Goldberg would never say it about themselves, but having heard and read him I’m sure Bob Dylan would say that too much attention has been paid to his opinions.

Just ping the freeper that you are dissing behind their back, and let them decide how they interpret your attacks.

Is that an order, herr Kommandant?
Funny, we are both anonymous posters on a web forum. I didn't know there was a hierarchy.

Great link. Thanks. It confirms what I always suspected: Dylan was never part of the Left. Dave Von Ronk confirmed as much in a documentary about Dylan and he was with him in NY from the beginning.

Queen Isabella and King Ferdinand were presented with slaves by a portuguese adventurer. They rejected the slaves since the top dogs in Spain didn't allow slavery ~ so you'll probably need to check into the statutes applicable to Castile and Leon ~ so, nothing at all made up `~ you are simply going to the wrong sources. The History of the Conquest of Peru and Mexico discusses at some length the need to address laws custom tailored to life in America (which the court did in due course) and how to address Spanish notions of social welfare with their rejection of slavery ~ which is no small trick.
So, what was your point?

You are absolutely right—and if we had, we probably would hsve invented a machine to do it for us.

Bob who>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Never could stand his voice so I don’t listen to anything he has to say. Who cares what a strung out druggy has to say! PS several ex-slaves have my last name but I don’t care about that either.

To his credit, he wrote probably the most staunchly pro-Israel song ever, “Neighborhood Bully”.

It is considered proper form on freerepublic to ping the freeper that you are attacking, or posting about.
If you are too cowardly to post directly to people that you disagree with, then maybe you can continue to slink around.

Gee thanks. It’s such a load off my mind to be judged not a liberal. By you.

Ah, you are the Self-Appointed Thread Cop. You tell people what to do and they ignore you. It must be endlessly frustrating for you.

And he thinks it all goes back to the countrys founding. At the time of the nation's founding slavery was accepted by both the Bible and Aristotle.The concept of natural rights was new and not accepted by many yet.

Thanks for the heads up, FRiend. And, well done on trying to share some truth about who Bob Dylan is. It’s a never ending amusement to see Freepers regurgitating the libspin.
