Yeah, just perfectly ‘legal’ for a master to kill their slave if they saw it that way or beatings, rape the women, split the children from their parents, etc. Knock off the excuses for a monstrosity. And who’s to say anyone involved in any kind of warfare and killing(as that is the business of WAR) is any better just because it is state-sponsored?!

Nope. It was against the law to kill a slave. Upheld in Mississippi [State v. Jones (1821)], Tennessee [Fields v. State (1829)] and others.

unless you would like to join "bubba", "DUH,snake" & a few others on these threads as a "humiliation to every FReeper" AND "a commonplace target of public ridicule", i suggest that you check your FACTS.

what you posted in #236 was, in one word, FALSE.
