Re: Arizona's New Immigration Law

I know I kinda went on a diatribe. sorry. But looking at the facts only about 1% of farmers had slaves. They were the Riches 1% cause not all farmers could afford slaves. Out of those 1% of farmers only a fraction had more then 5 slaves. If my memory serves me correctly only one farmer had 20 to 30 slaves. Thats it.

Also the whole "Farmers mistreating their slaves" was proven to be false and that it was a Northern propaganda scheme to get the US on board. I know someone will argue the issue so I'll retort now... why did so many Africans return to their plantations after they were freed and found that the Northern states were not so friendly? Why did the farmers who were so brutal give them land and allow them to stay on the land if they helped farm the land and even in most cases gave them part of the earnings in order to pay for food for their families?
