“All the mob did here was import their culture and values into the US.”

Actually, we imported their ancestors about 300 years ago. We needed the cheap labor, doing backbreaking agricultural jobs that British colonists refused to do, dont’cha know....

What’s the origin of the word, “Slave”, anyway? Does anybody know?

For what it is worth, neither I nor my ancestors did any sort of importing of any people for the purpose of forced labor.

Nor did any of my ancestors abuse people of any minority.

So unlike many posters (I am not accusing you) I have no overriding anglo self-hate and guilt regarding this.

If you see the vitriol that has been directed my way, it makes you think that this is a powerful force in the minds of many.
