Blacks Have no idea what racial hatred is really like. Not 1single country has had a policy of ridding the world of blacks. Millions of blacks have not been incinerated in ovens. Blacks may have been slaves, but not imprisoned bythe hundreds of thousands and murdered if the did not undergo forced labor or be shot and put in mass graves. My ancestors escaped the evils of Nazi Germany, if they had not. I would not be here. In a sense the black of today are lucky that their ancestors were slaves in this country. Because if they were not todays blacks would be victims of the wars in Africa. The blacks of today, even with todays problems, still live in the best place in the world.

I wonder what the folks who escaped or survived the nazi think of your way of using them.
If one is still alive, I dare you to tell him what you do on line.
'In a sense'??? What the hell does that mean?
Having a leg cut off is a good thing 'in a sense': You need only one shoe.
When folks say 'in a sense' it really mean they want only one perspective, one point of view that matches a skewed opinion. 'In a sense' usually invalids all arguments presented by the person using it.
As to other arguments? Let us see.
Mass killing... Look at Tulsa, the most notorious example.
Forced labor? What is a slave? Pray tell.
Lucky to have ancestors who were slave? Really?
Because there is war, pestilence and famine in Africa they are better now? Are you serious?
In this country? Wow! Slaves in the US were better than anywhere else in the world and the descendants are also better... Look at other countries that had slaves and come again will you?
Blacks in nazi Germany did not suffer? Ostracized, sterilized, murdered. They had indeed a great future in there, no question. Black prisoners of war? Murdered out of hand, sent to concentration camps or 'work camps' where they were... slaves.
There is one main difference in the US from other countries... Most of today's countries who had slaves were colonies when the slaves were freed. The US was NOT a colony when the slaves were freed, it took a war.
The south using 'state rights' as a justification for the war blamed the feds for interfering with their right to own slaves which was the base for their economy due to the labor intense activities. Basically 'We have the right to use slaves because this is how we make $$$ and the federal gvt has no business telling us what to do under 'state rights'.
