    You're giving them too much credit for thought.

    No thought goes into them behaving the way they do, much like the behavior of locusts.

    Yeah, you’re a secessionist still holding a grudge over losing the civil war.
    Get over it. You’re being played by trump in his desperate attempt to create hatred and division to help his election campaign.
    As for the civil war, the confederate traitors got more than they deserved from Lincoln, who was most gracious in their defeat.
    It was a mistake to let the traitors forget. Look at how uppity they got.
    Some shitholes in the south refused to celebrate the 4th of July for 75 years after the war.

    I don't think she would have failed. She might be a little different today.
    Many early societies believed that barbarians could be enslaved.
    The US did nothing wrong in the context of that time.

    "all men are created equal..........but we will allow slavery".

    our Founders knew it was evil. but they allowed it anyways.

    so much for moral courage.

    Well all the founders didn't agree with it and they dealt with the rogue Democrats accordingly "Civil War" and taught them that the male Negro was in fact a MAN. Southern Democrats of that era were hardly known for their intelligence.. What's alarming is how democrat strongholds like California go unabated in newer more stealthy slavery practices with the Latino and south American dark skinned people.

    Clearly the Dems of the south enjoyed others doing the hard work for them for very little compensation and fear tactics, and the same practice is alive and well on the west coast present day..

    Clear only if you put words in his mouth. He didn't say anything like that. Nice try.

    Agreed, those Democrats suck. Some of those dems in the late 1800s, and the 2020s refuse to celebrate the 4th. No real change to the Party.

    None. I would view those two maps as nonsense without knowing how they were developed and how they defined slavery.

    Are you doing your own research which disagrees with their data, or are you just making a knee-jerk assumption upon your uninformed "opinion?"

    Cite your counter data, I'm open to a discussion.

    Nope, the dems who call all those people racists, are more than happy to engage in uniformed speculations, and make their ignorant, knee-jerk assumptions about tens of millions of voters.

    Everything I write here is an opinion. That is true of most posts on this forum. I think the two maps are also opinion and not worth research.

    Yep.
    And after today, the suburbs won't have to worry about poor people either.
    No federal housing in the suburbs.

    Did you think the founders should have taken the democrat's slaves from the start?

    You think people are not using data, and are simply forming opinions on which nations they feel have not officially made slavery against the law?

    If a nation has not passed laws banning slavery or bonded servitude, how is it just an opinion to point this out?

    I don't see the logic with your arguments.
