    We were speaking broadly actually, you just cannot keep up with a debate. You are the epitome of irrational.

    They were considered human who were property of someone else. If you are referring to the great compromise that had to do with apportionment for the purpose of determining how many representitives a state got in the congress.

    Guess who didn't want them counted?

    0 got it.

    Then you shouldn't have a problem posting it.

    What are you babbling about.

    Oh so he was speaking for a white man, which in your mind means he was white when he made that asinine statement.

    Do u read this bullshit b4 u post it. It makes about as much sense as you do.

    Again what does it matter how many black friends I have? Your racism knows no bounds. Lol, bit that won't stop you from making racist assumptions about me, and the color of those I am friends with. Lolol

    I want to hear you deny saying it "you reap what you sow" in reference to a white man being tortured by 3 blacks before I quote it. I do love showing racist liars for what they are.

    Ofcourse you don't know what I'm talking about. Hide from the truth lololol.

    And race has no meaning to me, but it does to you which is why I pointed out how your outrage only applied to one person and not another for the exact same offense. Nice try at dodging lololol.

    I think you should take your own advice and read what you say, before posting.

    Racist.

    No, you only wait to hear what white people say, or those whom you deem uncle toms, in order to be the first to shout racism.

    I think some would be more forgiving of Carson if he had not said such stupid statements in past, such as the ACA is the worst thing since slavery, giving indication he has little concept of that horrid practice of human trafficking...

    the whack anti-vaxxer thinks the pyramids were built to store grain, for gosh sakes, along with about 857 other wild-ass smackadoodle things he's said.

    That might have a lot to do with why & how people view what he says.

    A blast from the past...the good stuff happens at about 7:15:

    [video=youtube;_6lrvu5y-d8]

    Wherein he goes on to defend all the news stories coming out about his embellishments and stories from his past and then went on a bizarro Grader rant: You guys never pulled this **** on Obama - well, not so much in those words, but basically.

    Why are his college records sealed? Why? Why??? You guys want to tell me why they are SEALED! Why? Why aren't you asking that? WHYYYY!

    Then he said he would think about revealing the name of that guy he tried to murder, but! only if every reporter he told would sign an affidavit promising they would henceforth "sing my praises" and never again do anything but give him foot massages and warm cuddles in the press.

    "Yes? Yes? Yes? Yes? Will you do that? "

    OK. He didn't actually say that about the foot massages....

    Or this, but close: Now leave me the hell alone, you bastards!

    There he is in all his glory, GOPpers, your new HUD Secretary.

    Then quote me as I have you. All you do is run away when your double standard between Carson and obama is revealed.

    The only stupid ones here are the ones who don't read the dictionary.

    So Obama is slow? Say it.

    You pride yourself in running away from your hypocrisy?

    Thanks for proving you have a massive double standard depending on who makes the statement.

    I have. Its obvious you have not.


    im·mi·gra·tion
    ˌiməˈɡrāSH(ə)n/
    noun



      • the action of coming to live permanently in a foreign country.
    Now, explain to us all how that is not exactly what the slaves did. No more running away. Answer the question.

    A horse isn't a person Genius. Good Lord.

    That doesn't change the reality that they are so the definition hasn't changed. You just can't get past the dictionary no matter how much you want to.

    Says the guy who can't even read the definition in a dictionary.

    I'll take that as an admission you weren't telling the truth when you claimed you just found out about Obama's statement when you had known about it for 10 pages.

    None thxs 4 clearing that up. Really, what racism have I shown.

    So it's racist if I ask u how many black friends you have, ok.

    [QuoteI want to hear you deny saying it "you reap what you sow" in reference to a white man being tortured by 3 blacks before I quote it. I do love showing racist liars for what they are.[/quote]

    In order to have a lie, you need a liar. Now please post were I said that young man was reaping what he had sown and if you can't you are a liar.

    You haven't posted as NY truth, you are just talking loud and ain't saying ****.

    They are both black, do you basically made an ass out of yourself.

    I always do try it.

    Liar.

    For the 100th time anybody who claims that slaves were immigrants is a dumb ass.



    Where did you read that.

    When it comes to calling slaves immigrants he is

    I pride myself in showing up ass clowns.

    What double standard would that be.

    You have something. I would get banned if I said what it is


    Now here is Webster's definition

    Did they come here or where they forced here.

    Now since they had no earthly idea where the hell they were going how could they take up the idea of permanent residence.

    No s*** but they were treated in the same manner as Horses or cattle and they weren't considered as persons

    ''

    Ethiopia, and Liberia weren't authentic colonies, and they are no different.

    What about European countries which were treated the same way?
    Such as Ireland, Finland, Poland, Slovakia, Estonia, Lithuania, Ukraine etc.

    Yes it's interesting that we can laugh at the stupidity of Ben saying it, but if it had been a White politician that made that comment we'd be screaming bloody murder.

    The slave narrative and immigrant narrative are two entirely different experiences.

    Slaves were ripped from their families and their homes and forced against their will after being sold into slavery by slave traders.

    The Immigrants made the choice to come to America. The two experiences should never be intertwined.

    Pretty sure Obama compared slaves to immigrants as well. When folks have to speak for a living, you can often go back and find lots of stupid stuff they have said.....Not defending it, just pointing out that others have said it as well.

    Same with being poor.

    If you were given the choice at birth that your destiny was to be poor, would you choose to be poor in the U.S. or in Ethiopia?

    It's pretty easy to see that what Carson was saying was a lot of forms of slave trade as well as other non-forced "immigration" lumped into one basket.

    The libs know this but just choose to be offended.

    For the 150th time anyone who can't read the definition in a dictionary is a dumbass.

    The book of common sense. It states quite clearly not liking a definition in the dictionary does not make it invalid so matter how much you wish it.

    Wow. It only took you 15 pages to finally admit it.

    Is he an assclown too because you called Carson that as well.

    You shouldn't be so hard on yourself.

    Up until this reply the one you kept reinforcing to call Obama the same things you called Carson for the same using the same word. Still waiting for you to call Obama an assclown as you did Carson.

    Intelligence? Logic? Education?

    Too bad that's no where in the definition.

    Once again you fabricate a definition that does not exist. Same old same old. You can't shake that reality can you.

    Still doesn't change the dictionary. You are ruled by emotion not facts. You continually try to insert a definition that does not exist and think it can replace the real one just because you want to. Its a fatal flaw in your argument.
