As I said, your ignorance of Jefferson Davis and the War between the States makes it impossible to continue the conversation.

The actual numbers kept by the FBI show the truth about race and crime and it is not what is popular. It is just the opposite of what the media keeps telling us.

>> This is what I know...........approximately, 600k Africans were shipped from Africa to the US........approximately, 60K died in the crossing. Many more died while enslaved in the US. And many more died after they were freed thanks to the toxic southern culture that Davis was defending. After slaves were freed, scenes like the one below were not uncommon: I'm going to act like you're an adult for a minute and ask a serious question. What do you suppose was the fundamental difference between northerners and southerners, that these two groups were willing to go to such extremes to decide the slavery issue? Were southerners evil? If yes, what do you think caused the southerners to be evil while northerners were such nice people?
