If you agree with me, why do you post an article derogatory to him?
Since when has owning slaves been honorable?
What the Hell stopped Africans to load their boats, navigate across the ocean and conquer new lands and peoples, other than their inherent lack of know-how, courage, education and ambition and then hold the conquered people as their slaves?
Back then, owning slaves was the norm. Everybody did it, the most expertly cruel slave owners being black.
Most black slaves brought to America were sold to slave traders by fellow blacks, who sold out their fellow blacks for profit. Kind of like what Al Sharpton, Eric Holder, Elijah Cummings, Barak Obama, Maxine Waters, Charlie Rangels, Jesse Jackson, just to name a few are doing today.
Back then a runaway slaves who escaped the plantation and wanting their freedom were crippled by having their Achilles tendon cut. Today, runaway slaves from the liberal/Democrat plantation are besmirched, denigrated and attacked for daring to be conservatives/Republicans.
Honorable? The ilk of those mentioned above have no clue about honorable.
Liars and cheaters and thieves have no honor.
