That's why they champion affirmative action and gun control; the former to assuage their guilt for owning slaves and for starting the KKK and Jim Crow Laws, the latter to keep some remnant of control when they start thinking for themselves.
I think the USA should do the right thing, today March 18, 2008, all slaves in the USA should be freed and all slave owners in the USA jailed.
