“Don’t forget that we don’t know who penned the phrase “domestic insurrection” or what it means.”

We may not know who penned the phrase “domestic insurrection” but we do know who authorized its inclusion in the DOI: the representatives of the slave states. All thirteen of the slave states.

At least you have now acknowledged that your claim that Jefferson used “domestic insurrection” as a euphemism for “slave insurrection” was incorrect. As for the rest of your baited statement, all I can say is you need fresh bait. Their is a time to fish and a time to cut bait.
