Yeah, yeah, and George Washington as an enemy to the Crown and a slave owner as well.
The Crown was granting emancipation to slaves who would fight for the King. You neo-yankee moralizers grow very quiet when challenged to apply your “tests” to him. Better get out your Redcoat and pledge allegiance to King George III.

Not me. It was wrong then, it was wrong in 1860, and it would be wrong today. As would those that thought slavery was just ‘peachy’.
Of course, none of them were slaves, eh?
