KKK chapter to hold rally on South Carolina Statehouse grounds

What do you want citation of then? Do you think slavery was a pleasant experience before America came around? The entire idea of slavery is evil, America didn't create it.

Omg I My view of all forms of slavery being evil would have fit in so well in 1850 South Carolina! What a hateful and racist opinion...

If the show fits...

That's just the point the SHOE doesn't fit and you're a moron for even implying such a thing
 
You two bookends missed your mark in time. You should have both been here when many others felt as you do. Maybe 1850 i South Carolina or such.
If your implying me as well your completely wrong. I am far far from a racist or believe slavery should still exist today
Thats a bit of a misrepresentation. There were no slaves brought to Canada from Africa, and the slaves that were brought up from America were very few, and were used as housekeepers and farm hands. There were no large plantations and chain gangs like in America.

The main form of slavery in Canada were amongst native Indians (you know, the ones settlers slaughtered in America) enslaving members of rival tribes.
I am not trying to say your right or your wrong. Yes Americans made slaves do unimaginable things but a slave is a slave wet her the we're only used for scrubbing toilets to picking fields. If they were not.paid they were a slave. A slave is a very broad word

I was just refuting your comment that Canada brought slaves over from Africa before America did. To my knowledge that's not true. The slaves that ended up in Canada were purchased from American slave owners.
 
ya. Because America didn't invent slavery, we were innocent.

What is the argument? That slavery was OK, or are we now denying there was ever slavery?
 
@stowandgrow I did not say that canada had slaves before America(if it's wrote that way I apologize.) I was just stating other countries were slave trading even before America. Yes America was in the top 3 or 4 but there were other countries before America. I believe the Indies were but can't grantee it

We actually didn't invent slavery techincally. But No Slavery Is Not OK On Any Terms No Matter The reason.
 
For all that.say what they want I am no racist by any means nor do I agree slavery was correct. I believe the past is past and what is done in the past should be taught this I'd what it was and should never ever be no longer. the flag was a battle flag not a racist flag or a flag of hatred

Britain Canada and many other countries were also getting salves from Africa some before america.

^That's what I thought you were getting at^

edit: And again, to my knowledge the slaves that were brought to Canada were not brought over from Africa. They were purchased from American slave owners.

The confederates threw down their flag & picked this one up......this is the true confederate flag now

No, not implying that at all. Go read londonfogs comments where he implies America created the worst form of slavery the world has ever known.

That's what I'm arguing, America isn't the evil inventor of chattel slavery or even slavery based on ethnicity. These are barbaric practices that have been perpetrated by every race. It's a humanity problem, not a white American problem.
 
That's where I disagree with you. The flag that is flying over the state capitol in SC was NOT the confederate army flag. It was a flag that was used in the 1940's and 50's to protest desegregation. It is very much a racist symbol.

Correct, the Confederate battle flag was only used by a few Confederate Armies. Notably General Lee who opposed flying it after the war, stating that it's best not to keep open the wounds of war. It pretty much went away after the Civil War and became popular again during the civil rights movement, it should be taken down.
