    A helluva lot easier than chaining them up in "holes." Are you, by chance, talking about holds?

    Blame your autocorrect before it's too late.

    But if it only applies to slaves you would think they would have said that.....why do you think they didn't?

    Not many places to enjoy living in West Africa which is where the ancestors were plucked from. She'd have been extremely lucky to have been in an area where she wasn't hunted by wild animals or rival tribes, or starve to death.

    Lol, cherry pick much? I shortened up 0.001764705882352941% but whatever. If we're picking and choosing who the racists are according to how we see them then I'm calling most of the left wing party racist, sexist, and homophobic because they won't hesitate to attack and insult a gay, black, female that dares think differently.

    It was adopted in 1868 as one of the Reconstruction Amendments. The amendment addresses citizenship rights and equal protection of the laws, and was proposed in response to issues related to former slaves following the American Civil War.

    And it's sick to say "those who came in the holes [sic] of ships in chains would probably disagree with you. The whole concept of you have it better today is asinine." too.

    Yeah I got it better than someone chained up n a ship.

    The point is while they were n that ship chained up they damn sure weren't thinking, "I hope my great grand children have it better."

    You're still missing the point. If it weren't for slavery, the Fourteenth wouldn't have been adopted.

    I didn't say they did. They were probably wondering why their own country captured and sold them.

    Mr Person asks:

    A smelly Mexican drug lord kidnaps your daughter from a posh New York suburb, let's say Scarsdale, and throws her in the back of one of those dinged-up white vans with tinted windows. He then travels to Mexico, where he uses her as a sex slave for the next five years. Eventually, you learn she spent the rest of her life as a sex slave in Mexico, until the drug lord got angry and had her shot.

    Did your daughter emigrate to Mexico?

    It could be anything from food to housing. Your false assumption is just that, false because you can't prove he meant money. Try again

    That goes without saying.

    Do you really think they didn't dream of their kids having it better than they did? That's what he said. Are you really arguing they wouldn't be dreaming about that?

    Oh yes. Its always someone else's fault. Pathetic.

    Hey @superbadbrutha, your messiah called them immigrants as well

    Where was your outrage then or now?

    “Certainly,” Obama explained, “it wasn’t easy for those of African heritage who had not come here voluntarily and yet in their own way were immigrants themselves. There was discrimination and hardship and poverty.”

    "“Certainly,” Obama explained, “it wasn’t easy for those of African heritage who had not come here voluntarily and yet in their own way were immigrants themselves."

    Unbelievable? So Obama is now an assclown and should never be heard from again? And why didn't you call for his resignation?

    Liberals criticized Ben Carson for calling slaves ‘immigrants’ – but guess who did it first

    An American ghetto is better than most parts of Africa and you don't see swollen belly kids dying of starvation with flies in their eyes in Chicago. The best part is if you're worth your salt you can get out of the American ghetto and the sky is the limit
