As I said, Context.

The discussion was pertaining to the Civil War.

“As I said, Context. The discussion was pertaining to the Civil War.”

Your post 502 made that plain. It reads in its entirety:
“I have heard many times that there was not one Whig or Republican slave owner owned slaves at the time of the Civil War. I know how to use a search engine I found many sources to confirm that.”

The problem with your statement: it is not true.

If you don't want to accept that from me, take it from Brother Joe who has become something of an expert on this matter. Said he: “So, yes, Burton was a slaveholder himself . . .” Burton was a Republican.

Brother Joe has thrown cold water on you.

And that brings to mind the ancient colloquial Choctaw valediction: oompa loompa doompety doo.

Translated it means: when your guardian angel of life urinates on your flintlock rifle, then you know your luck has done run out.
