you don't respect the constitution premise that All men are created
equal
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Only under the eyes of the law.....
You're both wrong; shame on you. It's the Declaration of Independence, and
it's predicated on the belief that government serves only to secure the
rights that we're all born with.
it is in the principle on which the constitution and its framer built
the govt of the USA
To whit:
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal,
that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that
among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure
these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just
Powers from the consent of the governed, -- "
Of course, that document was written by slaveholders...so much for -that-,
eh?
no it wasn't but slaveholders were included in the Contienal Congress
It was written a by a Slave holder who did include an anti slavery
clause, stricken at the last minute at the insistance of Mr Rutlegde of
SC
Wrong, stupid Marky, Thomas Jefferson, one of the principal authors of
the Declaration of Independence, WAS a slave-owner.
Inded he was as I said without naming him but of course he was ONE
person not "slaveholders" pural
you realy should try learning english
You are the one that said to this statement:
Of course, that document was written by slaveholders...so much for -that-,
eh?
You replied:
"no it wasn't but slaveholders were included in the Contienal Congress

clause, stricken at the last minute at the insistance of Mr Rutlegde of

YOU are the one who said the document wasn't written by slaveholders,
when anybody with a modicum of education knows differently, Marky.
You are the one in desperate need of learning English, child abuser.
As were many
others. It wasn't just written by one person, either, Marky.
the other authors (whose roles were minor) Adams, Franklin, Livingston,
and Sherman were not slave holders
You are even more stupid then you show on here, Marky, if you think
that... Adams and Franklin were not minor roleplayers, either, stupid.
Rutledge
needed the clause to be stricken for economic reasons. The agrarian
economy at the time in the South depended upon slaves as a workforce
yes of that was the reason advanced, beat then you are into beating
dead horses
Wrong stupid, as usual.
