You have to be utterly brainwashed to think the Union army invaded the south to free the nigras as they called them ...contrary to Ted Turners polemics lol....they invaded to stop my ancestors from seceding. And they were successful. A question settled by arms as Grant said succinctly.

However I will follow your logic and submit that following such logic I would be justified in waging war against the vaunted negro in America simply for this alone....and as you say ....there is more where that comes from....btw....given your disdain for flogging would you have also waged war against the US Navy or the Royal Navy for said offense....or perhaps you would have preferred they simply hanged him...

Horrible, but apples and oranges. We currently have a judicial system for dealing with rapists, although it's effectiveness in certain dem run cities is questionable. Apart from escaping to the North, slaves had no recourse.

Was the flogging for not wanting to be a slave, or for real offences?
