Go, IB, go!
When did NY abolish slavery? When did Alabama? Which one fought a major rebellion before they were FORCED to abolish it?
And it's precisely your choice to post what you did -- and your admission that it was deliberate -- that substantively proves it was a supercilious jab and that you are a pretentious and moronic troll, Old-THUMPER!!!!Fine language, IBMassa!

Wow. Since only 1.6% came to America I guess you think that makes it OK. I don't. I think every place that had slavery was wrong.
Now remind me again which state had 400,000 slaves in the 1860s. Was that New York, or was that Mississippi? Help me out here. Originally Posted by Old-T
"Whether it was officially encouraged, as in New York and New Jersey, or not, as in Pennsylvania, the slave trade flourished in colonial Northern ports. But New England was by far the leading slave merchant of the American colonies." Originally Posted by Old-T

Bush was a disaster.
And where was all the demand? In Maine? In Connecticut? I think I remember it was in places like Virginia and GA. I thought you RWW law and order guys were all about cracking down on demand, no? Isn't that what you faux law and order guys stand for in the war on drugs? I guess you are one of those "selective enforcement" kind of guys. You have never admitted any Good Ol' Boy Johnny Reb ever did anything wrong. I ha e admitted there were good and bad on both sides of the M-D line, but not you. Nope. Rant on Johnny Reb secessionist traitor. You do it so well. Originally Posted by Old-T

Rant on, IB. Rant on.It's fascinating how many different versions you could have posted, Old-THUMPER. Here's yet another version of your post that you could have posted, but didn't, Old-THUMPER.

The fact that northern states, and Africans, and others were complicit does not do a single thing to erase the fact that it was the southern states that had almost all the slaves until the 1860s. You can try to deflect all you want, but the history is what it is. Originally Posted by Old-T
"Boston and Newport were the chief slave ports, but nearly all the New England towns -- Salem, Providence, Middletown, New London had a hand in it. In 1740, slaving interests in Newport owned or managed 150 vessels engaged in all manner of trading. In Rhode Island colony, as much as two-thirds of the merchant fleet and a similar fraction of sailors were engaged in slave traffic." Originally Posted by Old-T
Of course I didn't post any of those. D I'd you forget this is IB we are talking about? Since when has he been interested in truth? Originally Posted by Old-TBut the point is, Old-THUMPER, you could have made those posts, since there are so many different variations, Old-THUMPER. You even could have chosen not to post what you did post, Old-THUMPER.
W.E.B. DuBois ascertained that New York never imposed restrictions on the African slave trade by its citizens outside its boundaries; hence, New York merchants, despite national laws, continued to engage in the African slave trade up to the Civil War. Originally Posted by Old-T

I thought that was frowned upon, even on here. If it is now acceptable, please let me know. I can have as much fun with it as the next poster. (But I really don't think wd want to go there.) Originally Posted by Old-T
W.E.B. DuBois found that as late as 1862 New York was the principal U.S. port for outfitting ships for the African slave trade. Originally Posted by Old-T

You're just making up shit agAin, IBIdiot.
How many versions of any sing,e post could YOU have posted? Something without foul, personal attacks? Something gentler than a vitriolic ejaculation? Something based in fact? Or considerate of any other side of s story?
NOOOOO! You are a walking meltdown IBIdiot. Especially whenever someone pushes the slavery button.
Why don't you simply STFU?
We get it. You're a Confederate loyalist, nearly 150 years after the fact.
You accept, excuse and support slavery.
Why continue to make us all feel so dirty by posting in the same forum as you?
(BTW -- you're the Hitler worshipping gay fuck doll wannabe.). Originally Posted by Yssup Rider
