How do you explain slavery in the Union states?

Democrats.


LMBO!

How do you explain that Gen. Grant (Radical Republican) and General Sherman (Cruel Bastard, SOB & Radical Republican) BOTH owned salved until AFTER the War, when the 14th AMendment was passed?!

Oh good grief!

The only slave Grant ever owned he purchased in order to manumit him.

You are obviously as poor an historian as your hero Walter Williams is. William Sherman never owned a single slave in his life. And even if he did, neither Grant nor he could have owned them as late as when the 14th Amendment was passed because the 13th Amendment made it illegal.
