michael, even for you, that was a particularly vile thing to say....You don't know me...can't speak for me... You must be either drinking again or snorting something.

I have a couple or more major family lines who were Abolitionists, WAyyyyyyyyyy before you started breathing and probably before your family was even here. I'm beginning to realise that one group, if not both, were helping the slaves on the Underground Railroad....People who helped didn't want to talk about helping, because first, the fine was $250, which was a whole year's income back in the 1840-1870's....and second, because it was a Federal Offense and prison was in the offing if they got caught.

Of course people like me supported Civil Rights. I didn't live in the South.
