    Did I claim that you claimed that I claimed someone did this?

    You're the only one being defensive here, my friend. I made a statement and you asked me a question unrelated to the statement I made. It's not my fault you're making no sense.

    Why do you seem continually bewildered by the notion that we shouldn't celebrate former slave holders? You'd think in 2018 it would be a simple enough notion to grasp.

    Couldn't you just celebrate them for other things?

    My wife is ugly, but she is a good cook.
    My son is stupid, but he is honest.
    My daughter is a hooker, but she has a heart of gold.

    Unrelated? You were the first to mention it wasn't only evil white people guilty of slavery and I was just curious why. To me that's a given. I simply take it for granted that everyone knows this and wondered if you'd come across people here who didn't.

    It's not just black people who were guilty of being slaves either.

    I don't need to hear you curse them I just need to hear you defending them and to hear other conservatives defending you in order to ensure your continued cultural irrelevance. In fact I want you to defend them louder. Buddy, I'm more than happy to provide you a platform to espouse your beliefs and those of your fellow conservatives. Have at it. Go to town.

    I see celebrations of the black african tribes and leaders that sold the slaves, should we ban those? And we celebrate the United States which was former slave holders. What flag did the slaves in the United States look up and see?

    Do try to be less bombastic should you desire a meaningful dialog.

    Why did you care about Trayvon Martin who was just another dead black guy until the liberal media tickled your racial outrage bone with the story (achieving their goal of getting a rise out of you while allowing his parents to collect a fortune)

    No they defended their country against the arms taken up against them. They were no longer the United States when the Union invaders came to destroy their country. Get your history straight.

    Whites, West of Orthodox Christianity culturally hybridized with Ashkenazim.

    The Orthodox did not culturally hybridize so they missed out on the Enlightenment
    as well as the understanding of the gears of capitalism vs feudalism.

    Spain and its' spin off obviously, didn't make it.
    Not White enough after 800 years of Moorish dominion? :rolleyes:
    And what of :flagcanada:?


    :)
    White, No Apologies!
    And Ashkenzi too, 95+%

    Simple Question: What NOT White Nation is receiving lots and lots of immigrants? Or refugees? ;)
    AND Why?

    Lol Where do you see celebrations of black African tribes who sold slaves? It seems like a rather niche gathering how did you get invited to this celebration?

    Also as a minority I can tell you that my love for this country and that flag stems from my understanding that America while not always perfect continually strives to be better tomorrow than it was yesterday. I don't celebrate the slave holders. I celebrate the waves of immigrants who washed up on these shores seeking freedom and a better life for them and their families. Americans who worked together despite differences of origins or language or the color of their skins or the gender in their births to forge one of the greatest civilizations mankind has known. It's isn't perfect by any means but it will be better tomorrow if we embrace the ideals of those who fought for freedom against those who wished to profit off the backs of human misery.

    Respond if you want or don't my desires are served either way. Either you don't because you can't or you do and I'm treated to another delightful snippet from the entertainer who brought me logic straight from the bible.

    I have done some reading, how nice of you to take the presumptive position that I am not coming from a historical position.

    Who am I dehumanizing? I only question the humanity of slave holders and confederates.

    I know it seems strange but we actually do have a generation of children growing up in the south who think confederates were "good guys".

    Right off the bat., You are incapable of discussing the topic due to your own prejudice.

    How is that prejudice? Right after that people came in to defend confederates. Usually when a someone predicts something and then it happens we call that person "right".

    Wearing the outfits and doing their dances and studying their cultures. Can you show me where those African tribes and leaders are condemned and banned from being celebrated?

    What does you being a minority have to do with that?


    So you don't celebrate the United States before the Civil War.

    Well that includes a whole lot of Southerns, many who came here as indentured servants. There were just more black slaves down here because the Northern states did not want a mass population of black africans in their states.
    But the fact remains, the United States invaded the Confederacy to bring those states with their slavery back into the Union and slavery was legal in the United States during and after the war. The war was not about ending slavery.
