DiogenesLamp: "If your position is that slavery is immoral, you shouldn't tolerate it at all.
New Jersey tolerating any is a violation of their alleged principle.
South Carolina having 400,000 is not a violation of theirs, because they didn't regard it as immoral. "

So let's see if I "get" this: DiogenesLamp wishes us to excuse slavery in South Carolina because it was lawful there, but condemn abolition in New Jersey because it didn't happen fast enough to suit DiogenesLamp??

Sorry, but I'm not certain if even "wackadoodle" is adequate to describe the level of nonsense coming from our FRiend DiogenesLamp.

I said nothing regarding you. I merely pointed out that New Jersey was being a hypocrite, while South Carolina was not. New Jersey saw it as wrong, yet did not end it completely, while South Carolina didn't see it as wrong.
