Yeah. But If I recall correctly, even Abe Lincoln had slaves. And I agree, its horrible, but couldn't something like this help spur along another revolution? One without hatred or wish for dominating others? Meh, I dunno. Its still early for me. z_Z

Not everything has to be about doom and gloom all of the time. With that kind of one track mind, we would get nowhere. Besides, it's yahoo. Not exactly a world leader in news.

it just urks me how bias anything related to slavery is. they want people to assume a sterotype of slaves being abused, some slaves liked there masters tomas jeffersons slaves for example, during the revolutionary war as he had to flee his home to aviod capture. a slave of his stood agianst the british and told the red coats that he dident know where he was, which suggests, that since someone who hates there owner would have ratted him out. that not all "slaves" were miserable. further more they always neglect the fact that the africans were sold by there fellow africans.
and ive yet to deside this but ive been wondering if there were enough immergrants to support the labor needed to make america. as contient hopping wasnt soo easy so i wonder if there was enough people to manage our farms then
