What are you seeking a fan, besides bs excuses for the DNC mob to tear down history? Do you need perfection? Should we just do away with beauty? Should we let the mob dictate public discourse? Seems so for you.
Show me where I said one word about wanting Jefferson torn down. Go ahead. I'll wait.
(pssst. I said no such thing)
All I did was tell you what, factually, Jefferson actually did. We have his work in writing, Pete.
And what is your reaction to this news? You don't want to hear it. Jefferson is perfect.
You prefer to think of him instead as his weakest alleged flaw.
that he owned property - nothing alleged here, he owned property, that property being slaves is certainly viewed as a flaw
that he slept with one of his slaves - nothing alleged here, he did sleep with a female slave and impregnated her at least 7 times is viewed as a flaw by some and not by others, in fact I am sure some Americans actually find it to be a love story
or whatever evil you sthink of when you hear his name. Because we all know you're superior
I believe previously you claimed Jefferson "raped" Hemmings.
And HE did.

There is also no defense in asserting Jefferson was merely a man of his time. There were plenty of his peers who supported the abolishment of slavery. John Adams for one. Ben Franklin once owned slaves, but eventually freed them and urged the banning of slavery in America. About half of the people of the United States opposed slavery during Jefferson’s lifetime.
Thomas Jefferson was a rapist. There’s no reason we can’t acknowledge that undeniable fact while considering the entirety of Jefferson’s legacy as a slave owner and Founding Father of this nation.

The Revolutionary War was not fought to preserve slavery. The United States was not formed to preserve slavery.
In contrast, the Confederacy was formed to preserve slavery. The Confederacy started the Civil War to preserve slavery.
THAT difference is what matters.

Re: Race in America - Riots Explode in Minneapolis
.. I know of no evidence that Jefferson penetrated Sally without her permission. The best you have for rape is her age and the laws of statutory rape. The argument that she wasn't old enough to give consent when there is no or a low age limit for consent is pretty shaky. Exactly what age would that be in 1790?DocBarrister wrote: ↑Wed Jul 08, 2020 10:18 pmThat is not relevant.
