Nothing screams “SLAVERY!” like plastic chains and rubber shackles.

Yo.

[chrisser]

most of which were never documented in the history books and kept away from you in the educational system

What planet is this guy from?

[a fool in paradise]

Socialism comes with shackles too.

And some are only too willing to cast them on EVERYONE whether they want them or not.

[donhunt]

Welfare is basically just another form of slavery.

[Pollster1]

Yes, I said handcuffs…shackles….the stuff that our ancestors wore for 400 years . . . I already know how many people are going to say, “Boyce, why are you overreacting?”

Why is he overreacting. The first 30 black slaves in North America arrived in 1619. That won't hit its 400th year for 7 more years. He's overreacting, and he's bad at math.

[a fool in paradise]

The same history books that suppress the facts that white devils are the result of an African science experiment gone wrong. Back when men still had wings.

[a fool in paradise]

People are still sold into slavery in West Africa and black people in the West are largely silent.

[a fool in paradise]

Socialism is slavery to the State.

Only Marxists consider all property to be “theft”.

[Venturer]

Come on Hoss ,lets lighten up a bit,

Yeah: I agree shackles on tennis shoes is a bit stupid, However you description of the atrocities laid on slaves is a bit much.Few slaves experienced the strocities in this country that Christians today are experienceing in Muslim countries. In all the stories I have read of slave I don’t remember reading of beheadings mutilations and being blown to kingdomome by suicide bombers. I don’t remember reading of hand and arms being cut off, Those are the most horrific atrocities imaginable.

Yes some were beaten ,treated badly, raped and sold by their owners away from their families, but some were a part of the family they served.

I am not defending slavery in any form, but your description of the most horrific atrocities imaginable do not rivel Muslim atrocities going on today in Middle Eastern or countries where slavery still exists.

...the stuff that our ancestors wore for 400 years while experiencing the most horrific atrocities imaginable, most of which were never documented in the history books and kept away from you in the educational system, all so you would be willing to put shackles on your ankles today and not be so sensitive about it.

[PGR88]

repeat after me: I AM A VICTIM. I AM A VICTIM, I AM A VICTIM, I AM A VICTIM

There. Don't you feel better now?

[wtc911]

Yes some were beaten ,treated badly, raped and sold by their owners away from their families, but some were a part of the family they served.

This "Dr" has obviously never studied what life was like for his ancestors when they were slaves on the African sub-continent BEFORE they came to America. American's have never committed atrocities that can match what sub-Saharan black Africans have done, and continue to do to each other...

[hecht]

does the African version include a bottle of rum?

[Carriage Hill]

“...white devils are the result of an African science experiment gone wrong.”

Isn’t that Calyso Louie Farra-Con-Man’s wacko BS-religion crappola theory? Come in, ‘Mothership’...

[MNDude]

No one is responsible except those who would dare wear something so ridiculous looking.

[atc23]

Hmmmm Lakers colors!

"What planet is this guy from?"

It's the same planet where BOR, Hannity and Rush are Klansmen, college athletes and their families should be paid for playing in the NCAA (I guess a $100,000 college degree isn't enough) and in all probability that planet where there are Black engineered airplanes buried under the Sahara sands, the Pharoahs were all Negro, and Black people invented practically everything but had it stolen by White Devils.

He's all about social justice, dontchano?

And he's very, very angry about a lot of stuff that never happened to him or anyone he ever knew.

(And as another poster mentioned, he's not very angry at all about stuff that's really happening now.)
