“What's your point (if any)?”

You had used the word “slavers” and so I mentioned which of the original states had agreed to write slavery into the U.S. constitution. The slave states that wrote slavery into the constitution (and the Declaration of Independence) were New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, and Rhode Island. And, yes, Virginia, North, Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia.

I know this is a sensitive subject but I thought it best not to hide it. If I had agreed to hide it, how would that have looked?
