A slave revolt is different to me. If anyone captures and enslaves someone, the slave has a god given right to kill as much of that society as they can achieve.
What was he supposed to do? Wait patiently? Hope someday he would be able to argue his case in court?
If isis captures someone, think that person has a right to kill captors and everyone with them, if they can?
The hell with that. He seems like a heroic character to me.
What else would a slave owner expect, compliance and acceptance?
I don’t like the reasons the blm types want this statue. But i got no heartburn with turner.
Murdering women and children is never OK I don’t care how you try to justify it.

Agreed
Am pretty sure even the Bushido code - who would rather have the soldier die before surrender or capture, would be all for killing ALL your captors and their supporters to ensure your getaway to get a chance to come back and die for the Emperor with pride, to erase the dishonor he brought upon himself.
I guess I don’t blame Turner or condemn him. But I don’t idolize him because he doesn’t deserve it. There should be no heroic statue of him.
