Big Time Vanity, Feel Free to Pass it on to Snowflakes!
Please Boycott and do NOT use the $1.00, $20.00, $50.00, & $100.00 bills, as they depict slave owners on them. Please send them to me, and I will see to it that they are disposed of properly. Thank you very much. I can give you my address upon request!
Neither Ulysses Grant nor Benjamin Franklin ever owned a slave.
What the Hey!
You Got to Laugh at the stupidity of these ....morons,
be it the left we know about already,
but these butt kissing republicans are really getting on my nerves chiming in to correct OUR PRESIDENT’s Choice of words!
Mine, too, although I am good with that evil slaveowner, James Madison. Thank you, one and all.
Too late!
I burned all of mine.
That leaves me free to use all the Sacajawea dollars I have.
Brilliant idea!
I really don’t know who owned slaves or not. I personally don’t care. I thought this was funny because the level these people take today in broad daylight destroying property ,just because they can and no one cares to stop them but later says charges will be done after the destruction. Regardless who is factually correct on a slave owner or not in the past is irrelevant when you see Adults allowed to destroy statues or monuments.Completely overboard.
How many people are paid in this filthy racist lucre?? I agree, send me these white supremacist bills and get them out of your homes. I am already considered racist so nothing will happen to me. But you... You have a lot of friends who will drop you if you are seen with these KKK bills in your pocket. Hurry.
ha!
How much does each American owe due Congressional spending... Are we all ‘slaves’ yet?
Har Har. And I heard that this racist money is no longer accepted on the Black Market.
You really should do a few minutes of research before you call an historical figure a slave-owner. Franklin lived most of his life in Pennsylvania, not at all known for slave ownership, although I’m sure there were a few. General of the Army Grant commanded the force that defeated the Confederacy. Yes, Washington, Jefferson and Jackson owned slaves.
“How much does each American owe...?”
$61,344.00
So yes, they both owned slaves.
Links?
I wasn’t trying to offend our past leaders but found this humorous as the climate of hysteria about anything of our historic past was offensive to those that want to tear anyone down,regardless! Please move on lecturing me.
Hello it WAS Suppose to Be Funny!
Franklin owned two slaves. Grant owned one. Franklin later in life freed his slaves, King and George and actually became a leader in an abolitionist movement. Grant freed his slave in 1859.
Slavery and might makes right is the natural state of mankind. Slavery was and is practiced everywhere in the World. It is quite possible that there are more slaves by raw number in the World today than at any time ever in human history. .
Just a note for serious...
