All I have said is that slavery in America was a mistake and people believe I am a liberal for saying that slavery was a mistake.
With that, I can only assume that those who disagree with me do not believe that slavery was a mistake.

We know you're a liberal because you obviously drank too much bong water and you are biased against the United States. You should hang with Michelle Obama. Just like you, she's never been proud of the United States.
Many of the people you've insulted on this thead are military veterens who've served in deployment zones bringing freedom to other nations.
So please, stop molesting farm animals.
That would be a poor assumption. If your only point on this thread was to say that slavery was a mistake, then it's a good thing you didn't have Lincoln's ear during the civil war. Your powers of faulty logic and jumbled reasoning would have been enough to get Lincoln to start his own slave-powered plantation.
I am also curious what you meant in post 155 when you suggested that America still needs to pay.
That is NOT what you said!
I’m not quite sure America has paid for the “mistake” of slavery, but even if it has paid for that “mistake,” it does not minimize that mistake or absolve America of slavery and placing African Americans in scientific experiments.
Slavery was a mistake. That’s not a liberal belief. It’s a dark time in our history. It doesn’t matter that slavery existed for thousands of years, since the beginning of time, in all cultures/nations. It only matters to the world because the U.S. is being held responsible, responsible for the concept even. Yes slavery existed and more than 400,000 white men gave their lives fighting a war for it.
Yes, slavery existed and happened and continued in the U.S. It’s a dark time in our history. Our country was formed and our Constitution written, including slavery. We also defeated the so called “Native Americans” aka Indians. Shit happens and sometimes it ain’t good at the outset. However, I’m glad it happened. It’s a part of our history and the reason we are the nation we are today. I’m happy we defeated the indians and our nation became what it did.
And we, the people today, a couple hundred years later, are paying for that mistake because people like you refuse to see the whole picture. BECAUSE we are the country we are, we continue to allow this reparations crap. Eventually, the white guilt, the liberal guilt about our history will destroy this nation. The entitlement issue is huge. It’s spread from the whole “slavery” issue to include generations later. Those who never experienced any discrimination. 1864 til now 2010. It’s time to get the f over it already.
Now we have generations of people on welfare, feeling they are entitled to something.
My ancestors came here in the late 1800’s, way after the Civil War. They were legal immigrants. They, and I, don’t owe a damn thing to those who were here prior. I owe what I have to my ancestors who suffered and worked their asses off to make a life here. They didn’t have welfare or social services to help them.
Then again, I’m white so I don’t have a say about the hardships suffered...rme.
