“The difference between a free man and a slave is fifty cents a day’’. Lincoln. He wasn't willing to see a divided nation. And he signed the Emancipation Proclamation in 1863. tell me, are you defending slavery here?

You are going to ask me if I'm defending slavery here? Do you not have the wit to grasp the subtle difference between championing people's right to self determination (independence), and supporting slavery? (Lincoln was absolutely opposed to the former, but willing to tolerate the later.)

Of course I do not support slavery, especially my own, but that is where we are heading if the Fed Zilla keeps sucking up more power.
