In post #171, I said that "the Proclamation freed no one." You responded in post #174 by saying that "someone should have told Douglass that the Emancipation Proclamation did nothing to free the slaves." You were, in effect, saying that the Proclamation freed the slaves.

If anyone here is lying, it isn't me.

Uh, I'm not Frederick Douglass. Quoting the importance of the Proclamation to someone else doesn't mean I'm saying it. You didn't know that?

You REALLY need to learn some basic English!
