Slavery is about owning people. Stop trying to make it sound like, “they did it too.”

The pro slavery wing of FR is simply disgusting g.

Pointing out historical fact is not "pro-slavery".

Ignoring history and blaming current people for past actions is Marxist thuggery.

Pro slavery? My ancestors fought for the Confederacy because the Yankees were confiscating their property and destroying their homes and livestock. None of the Confederates in my heritage owned slaves. The slaveowning GGGF joined the Union Army in Tennessee because his family had fought for Independence and were believers in the Union. History is not clear nor precise and the war for many wasn't over slavery.
