your a terrible person
If you disagree with TM you are a racist by default, but also smarter than her, also by default.
Just sayin
TM is by far brighter than any of these clowns. I cant imagine how much they darken the lives of everyone around them.
Based on the moronic response you got, I think you struck a nerve.

A simple yes would have avoided the fact that free blacks bought their families but could not free them according to law. Something you racists like to use in your claims that lots of Blacks owned black slaves.
There was no law saying you couldn't free slaves. Nice try though. Although there was a law (Fugitive Slave Act of 1850) regarding runaway slaves.
And yes quite a few blacks did own slaves. As a matter of fact in Louisiana, the largest slave holder was black.
In 1860 there were at least six Negroes in Louisiana who owned 65 or more slaves The largest number, 152 slaves, were owned by the widow C. Richards and her son P.C. Richards, who owned a large sugar cane plantation. Another Negro slave magnate in Louisiana, with over 100 slaves, was Antoine Dubuclet, a sugar planter whose estate was valued at (in 1860 dollars) $264,000 (3). That year, the mean wealth of southern white men was $3,978 (4).

You cant be that stupid can you?
Slave codes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Alabama, 1833, section 32 - "Any free person of color who shall write for any slave a pass or free paper, on conviction thereof, shall receive for every such offense, thirty-nine lashes on the bare back, and leave the state of Alabama within thirty days thereafter..
Now thats just the written law. Wanna guess what would happen to the freed slave?

You discredit yourself saying something like that Asclepias... Many of these posters on this thread have opposite beliefs than yours but at least they make points that you can argue. Truthmatters rarely brings anything relevant to a discussion.
If you are a citizen you pay taxes. Thats what you signed up for when you became a citizen. The taxes you pay would got to paying off that debt. Move back to where ever your people are from if you are not ok with it. Looks like I'm still talking doesnt it? That must have rustled your Jimmies.
I was wondering which one of you was buckwheat.
fucking racist

please answer why Nazi decendants didn't get to keep what their families stole from the jews?

One state? Your implication was that no slave owners could free their slaves lawfully. Which is still wrong with the exception of one state.
But as long as we're talking about laws, seems there were laws that protected slaves as well.

Word still has no power.

You lost what was left of your credibility with that statement.
Thanks Sunni for the idea (sorta) re: 40 acres and a mule.
For.
We kidnapped them, enslaved them, should pay backwages. Fair's fair.

Not to mention, the Alabama law only forbids a free person "of color" from freeing a slave. It does not prevent a slave owner from freeing a slave. So, it seems that this law does not fully complete Asclepius' statement.
I do not know of any laws that forbade an owner from giving freedom to a slave. There might be some.

ah ha
your true nature shows.
crime is not supposed to pay huh.
slavery is a crime
they are still profiting from a crime done long ago.
did we let the Nazis keep their plunder?
Who? Be specific now for if you're going to throw something like that out there than you must have a list of these profiteers! From what I gather anybody living in the States can thank what they have from the sweat of our forefathers! The African slaves, Irish indentured servants, no wage earning Chinese, Korean sweatshop workers, etc.

Sure.
Anyone who has been enslaved in the US should receive compensation.
However, the person who has been allegedly enslaved must first file his or her claim in court or some other legal venue.
