The only thing false, you "#Grubered", freelance faggot, Odumbo Minion from Arkansas, is the shallow and hypocritical nature of your education and belief system, and it's you and your ilk with your distorted views who are the "stain" on this country's history. BTW, you "#Grubered", freelance faggot, Odumbo Minion from Arkansas, Arkansas was part of the Louisiana Purchase, you illiterate, uneducated faggot, and with that purchase came French slaves.

"It is ironic that the 1803 Louisiana Purchase from France was instigated by one of the few successful slave rebellions. Toussaint L’Overture on St. Dominique (now Haiti and the Dominican Republic) so bedeviled the French that Napoleon decided to sell the Louisiana Territory to the US. This doubled the size of the infant United States and has been heralded as crucial to the American path to becoming the world superpower. It also had profound effects upon African American slaves because the new territory would be organized into states that became the political and sometimes actual battlegrounds that led to the Civil War."
You don't even know what you're talking about half the time. It was the successful slave revolt that led to Haiti being the first independent black-majority state in the world. It was also a factor in Napoleon offering the Louisiana Purchase to the US.
