And, there are a few major points that are usually neglected; most slaves weren't beaten like movies and politicians would have you believe, not all slaves were from Africa, some came from South America, and The Civil War was almost over when Lincoln declared that slavery would be abolished IF the North won. Now, I do think that slavery was wrong, but it has been a year or two, and I don't know if anybody that was enslaved is still alive to tell about it, and the ones that were opressed before affirmative action, and political correctness come about, are in the latter years of their lives. Yes, I believe in equality for ALL, and yes I fly The Confederate flag. And, if that offends you, I'm offended that you're offended. :)roughneckturtle/Jeff C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16722449738122036517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7152579126175694711.post-14675807944598193072011-02-22T12:21:02.046-08:002011-02-22T12:21:02.046-08:00Oh for crying out loud!

I had not heard about this, but it's getting pretty damn old with everyone worrying about someone else being offended about everything! Can we all just grow up, act like adults, and stop trying to tip toe around everything. If you don't like something, fine. But the whole world should not have to go out of their way to accomodate someone who can't handle life. I'm so glad you wrote about this because it's just proof once again at how messed up everything is becoming.
