I need more popcorn. You just cant make this stuff up.
Is he AOCs familiar?
He was not wrong.
Blacks brought to America in 1619 were indentured servants. Slavery did not begin for decades later, when a black man sued to keep his black indentured servant permanently.

While I’m none too eager to come down on the side of Virginia’s moonwalking Governor Northam, everyone might want to study the history of Virginia before condemning him. Chattel slavery did not exist in the early colonial years, Africans were in fact indentured servants up to the case of Anthony Johnson and John Casor. After that ill-fated legal decision, chattel slavery began, in 1655.

Des are DENTED servants. Or Demented.
Ralphie mustve put his brain out with that Red Ryder.
The guy is a disgrace. As he said from his own mouth: fhe electorate in VA need to "make him 'comfortable'", until they politicaly euthanize him.
Yeah and the Americas was not the only place that slaves were traded but to hear the Africans talk, America is the only place that did this to them.
If he said this in a TV interview, it’s likely this is his normal view on slavery.
Indentured servants of course were a real thing at the time — and not what the slaves were.
Endentured.
Were slaves made comfortable before they were indentured?
Having vry recenty visited the homes of the Virginia slave holding presidents the word used to describe the condition is enslaved. The black African people forced to live and work on the plantations were enslaved.
The primary focus of these homes is now ensavement rather than the greatness of the founding fathers. Virginia has literally gone to hell
The baby killer is a deceitful jackass just another Democrat Thug
Virginia, you elected a racist moron and got a baby-killer as a bonus!
The first group who landed in 1619 were indentured servants.
If these were the people he was referring to he would probably be correct.
He obviously thinks it means the same thing as “slaves.” Cut him a break!
No Republican would survive 24 hours having uttered such an absurdity.
Alright. Let’s not jump into the stupidity game alongside the race-obsessed Dems.
History is not clear on the specifics of the Africans arriving in Virginia in 1619. And their were plenty of indentured servants arriving among the white folks.
1. It is NOT the merits of what Northam did or didn’t do.
2. It IS the media’s reaction to what Northam did or didn’t do.
Let’s not get distracted.
And let’s not forget that Northam is a baby butcher. As is the entire Democratic Party and all our neighbors who vote for them.
he is the biggest Goober since Goober
