They always kill the cripples first

By the way in old south when a slave was cripple or too old to work did master kill them off or did master still feed them even when they were just a burden on masters bottom line? Did the old south have laws on these types of issues?

Sorry, I don't know. But I know the old-time landowners in Germany didn't take care of their "serfs/workers" when they became too old to work.
