I get such a kick out of people in here saying not all SLAVE owners were bad or treated their slaves bad.
They are SLAVES. That in itself makes them being treated bad a gimme. There is no such thing as a good SLAVE owner for fucks sake.
Pull your head out of uncle toms cabin, the person who wrote never went south before she before she wrote. Most slaves were treated better than poor white or those working in northern factories. Slavery was bad and terrible thing but it wasn't what the history books would like for you to believe.
