I'm quite sure that some of my ancestors did own slaves, but I am not about to apologize for them. Slavery is bad. It is regrettable, and I regret that it occurred. But...

-I wasn't there.

-I don't support slavery.

-Slavery is not unique to American history.

-American slavery was abetted by slavers in Africa.

-I'm a Yankee by choice, not by birth.

-It's all in the past.

-Everybody needs to get with the program.
