None of my ancestors brought any slaves from Africa. A few of them were slaves brought from Africa. Nonetheless, you hang with those who are offended that a black man is in the WH. Many are those same people are descendants of people who brought Africans over to this country to work their fields. Unlike northern farmers, they wanted to be gentleman farmers....enjoying the good life.....without getting their hands dirty. So they went about enslaving people in order to make that happen which is a sin against nature and God......to own another human being. And they used those people in some of the most despicable and disturbing ways. A war had to be fought to get them to stop but they have never stopped resenting the loss of their easy life. Now its over 150 years later......a descendant of an African is the president of the US......and they are beside themselves with anger and hate. Frankly, as I see, its called divine justice.......and I think it may be time to consider compensating the descendants of those slaves for the hell your friends' ancestors put them through. What say you?
