Detox's political thread

stu  ....  is your avatar scalaborine with a lone rangers mask?  

No, there's X's over his eyes because as far as i'm concerned Scal is dead on this site.

What makes the American slave experience more horrendous than say the current slave trade in N Africa? They are also taken against their will, sold and subjected to horrific conditions by Muslim masters. 

 

I'm too lazy to go back and see what your original beef with him was or what he said.  Also, too lazy to look back and see if you are talking about a certain group or what.  So, don't know if you are asking about conditions or what all. 

Stu - Obviously the slavery is deplorable and NOT ONE OF US on this board every owned a slave or I hope never thought of owning another human being. Let's start with that. It ended 150 years ago in the USA and white people made it end. Unfortunately, it still goes on in the world. I'm sorry but I find it ridiculous that it's still such a touchy subject - detox is correct it wasn't exclusive to the USA, I mean there was a holocaust 70 years ago and I don't have to be reminded of it constantly. Both are horrible part of history. The Browns have a better shot of winning the SB this year than slavery every being in the USA again. Can we please move on? 

Killer B, I agree with your post 100%. For the record, I wasn't the one who even brought up slavery. If one was to stumble into the last few pages of this thread they would think, "Oh boy. Here's another black dude bringing up slavery." when actually all I did was make a statement about how there is foul garbage done by all races to all races. I basically said we need to own up to our own shite and move on from it. I closed the post by saying, "To black people: CNN is not your friend. The democratic party is not your friend. We are being played." I tired of all the dissension and divisiveness the the media sows and i'm tired of the people who buy into it. Tox took that and randomly brought up slavery. Why? Tox likes to stir the shite. He doesn't want a black dude like me saying, "You know what. Not all white people are the enemy. Some of our shite is our fault. Let's move on from it and be better." He would rather a black dude complaining about the man and asking for reparations so he can bring out some random facts like, "There was slavery everywhere." No shite, Sherlocke, but what does that even have to do with anything? He's basic and predictable and upset that i've figured out his shtick. Go back and read my post that proceeded him bringing up slavery and see if it warranted slavery even being mentioned. He's a one trick pony. He looks up these random facts on the internet and waits for opportunities to bring thrm up. Scal's not around so he figures he can try that crap with me but i'm not the one.

Part of what makes the US seem the worst, if it is or isn't, is the fact that it is our history and relatively recent and accounts are in papers, etc.  Whereas, way back the details get murkier and all.

Illegal immigration to USA is now a form of human trafficking. Yes there are those who come to work and actually work in field conditions and as

house keepers as originally planned however most are being driven into sex trade. Back page domain was seized by the FB I. Do to this bitcoin finances this. We sent the National guard to stop the next caravan of miles for gangs drug trade with USA. 

But the lives of these humans are not going to be better. They fled due to abject poverty. They end up in squalor conditions working for less than Americans in a form of slavery and they are the lucky ones who find farm work. Such as decosters egg plant here in Maine.

Thanks Stu. A lot of things tend to irritate me but the media flaming the flames of racial divide is in the top 5. Unfortunately, I don't think this is ever going to change. 

Life in prison please.....

Meanwhile back in Washington....

Gateway Pundit, "The Office of the Inspector General has released a 39 pg report finding Obamas' DOJ, FBI: to be corrupt, dishonest, coordinated and.conspiring"

Is this real life...?

Another from GP, Trump supporters blamed for being beaten by mob.

Stu is alright in my book. I like people that are open to this kind of discussion. 

Nature, why would the sex trade be paid for with bitcoin instead of cash? It’s much easier to track bitcoin than it is to track cash. 

Not necessary but illusion detox you as an individual and think as individuals do you believe something is exchanged directly for something else. Pay for gas and pump it and leave. Bear with me cause black markets do not always work in such a manner. Someone craves something in this scenario. 

Someone wants to have sex. Then another wants to buy coke another wants to bet on a game and finally another wants alcohol orcigerettes. So someone pays in bit coin. A prostitute steals some cigarettes another makes some moon shine another finds some coke and then enhances it to crack. The whole thing is funded by the same back room speak easy betting parlor and the exchange is made for someone has to rent in real money.

No clue what you’re talking about 

Look detox it is ok you have a good job real money and live pay taxes rent the “American Dream” shorter living the dream as a person who is squared away. Reality is much different for those on “other side of the tracks”. You seem like a man with conservative individualistic principals .... but I do not have the time or patience to explain an entire thesis to a third grader....

Quit while you're ahead, Tox. Don't go down this rabbit hole.

Still waiting for Detox to reply to Stu    

Stu corrected himself. 

Does anyone know what Nature is talking about?
