Exactly. They want to live like lords and ladies of the manor and the minorities their loyal serfs.
In typical idiot jourmoflub Darren X is labeled as holding ‘his AR15’ ... he is holding a Hi-Point carbine, not an AR. The caliber might be 9mm or 45acp, but it is not an AR. Pretend is such a fun game for racists to play. But we expect that from minds so steeped in Magic Thinking.
Yes.
A lot more people would be alive.
The dominant Southerner thought that free black men and women would be too dangerous...
If only they had seen what "slaves" would become in future times...
It was nowhere near as simplistic as you make it seem.

1863

Who, exactly, was buying all that cotton and why is that relevant to the Civil War?
It is not a simple question with a simple answer.
You do realize that the founding fathers had slaves, too, don’t you?
And just about everyone with any money at all, until after the CW?
And that the first slave owner was a black man?
Figgers.
insecticide! fungicide! my side, your side, backside, slip n slide, free ride, Naugahyde!
Yes, I know that.
It really ticks me off.

What’s done is done, right or wrong and all of it contributed to the creation of this nation.
The problem is that people are determined to nurse past grievances rather than forge ahead, benefiting from all the new opportunities it has created for them and their descendants.
I could whine about history of the Irish.
But I don’t.
Why?
Because everyone who committed atrocities against my dead kin is also dead.
Move on.
“In typical idiot jourmoflub Darren X is labeled as holding his AR15 ... he is holding a Hi-Point carbine, not an AR. “
Of course, good point.
I just wonder if these thugs will be a never ending albatross on our necks, those of my kids, those of my grandkids.
Thanks for the pricing info. It would seem they’ve been kind of consistent over the years then. Maybe since I shop closer to Christmas I saw some good promos. “Give the gift that goes BANG!” And all that...lol!
