Comparing life in the projects as worse than life on a plantation takes on multiple levels of thought and reaction.
When speaking publically, one does need to get their mouth in the same gear as the mind before opening the mouth.
I do understand the point Bundy was making, but it can just as easily be misconstrued, and therefore becomes a tool for the left to employ.
Thing is, just as living on the government dole is not the same lifestyle in every case, being a slave meant different things to different slaves and slave owners.
Some slave owners took a biblical aspect and treated their slaves “almost” like part of the family. They saw them as “employees” for whom they were responsible.
Seriously.
Now, you and I value freedom greatly, but we have also exploited it greatly. There are no small number of people who would give it up for comfort. And there are a LOT of them in our nation.
And what of all the black men in prison?
i.e. this issue is not as black and white as it appears, no pun intended.
