Right-o. I forgot to mention the one pressed to death.
I believe it's Bellisles? Yes, one and the same.
Emory (yawn) University.
"...The property/income restriction should still be around.
No Representation without Taxation is just as important as the reverse."

It was actually called "turning off". A nice way of saying something that was pretty nasty. Because they just pushed them off the ladders.
Pressing was also used.
Wasn't Arron Burr the VP when he shot Hamilton? Or was he just a lawyer?
Those who can do, those who can't go to a university and get tenure so that they can warp your children's brains.
British Psychiatrists, British Lawyers, and British Darwinist Economists are really,....running the world?

I knew I was getting that name wrong. Shows us how relevant he is.
Too bad we weren't doing more than figuratively burning the queers and hanging the Muslims. Perry Treadwell likely fears that outcome for personal reasons. ;>)
I'm not sure I got it right. And yes his shot at fame resulted in a man no one cares about except those of us who remember him for his prevarication.

Actually, suffrage was a matter for the states to determine and a few in New England allowed blacks who met the property requirements to vote at the time of the constiution.
Another good quotation from that era that this author is probably unfamiliar with is "the swinish multitude," an expression used by Edmund Burke. Burke was the first to predict what a disaster the French Revolution would turn out to be. Before that he was known in America for speaking out in Parliament on behalf of the colonists' rights.
Trust me....it hasn't improved but only gotten worse.
