Exactly. I will also note the language in the U. S. Constitution or was it the Declaration of Independence, that declares all men equal. My what a bunch of racists to coined that term, or merely repeated it.

The media today including the Boston Globe simply will not list the race of criminals who commit criminal acts.

Not very racist are they...

After all, what does it matter now anyway?

When you’re dead, you’re dead.

The man that wrote the lines “all men are created equal” in the Declaration of Independence was Thomas Jefferson. Over Jefferson’s life, he owned 700 slaves. During his life Jefferson freed 5 of those slaves. After his death 5 more of Jefferson’s slaves were freed in his will. Seven of those slaves manumitted by Jefferson were blood relatives of one Sally Hemings, herself a slave at Jefferson’s estate at Monticello.
