Moot question. Thanks cripplecreek.
Amash needs to be defeated.
The Dunmore proclamation was a bill of Attainder.
Some like to claim it was the Brits freeing the slaves during the revolution. In fact it stripped patriots of their property, slaves included. Slaves were given to loyalist families and British officers and males were given a choice of fighting for the Brits with a promise of freedom or resold.
Interestingly enough, many who fought for the British were simply left here, fled to Canada and many who served on ships were resold in the Caribbean.
If I can’t have everything, I don’t want anything!
I didn’t realize the definitions were so close - thanks for the lesson!
Thanks for the ping.

Thanks for the explanation “representative” Amash.
Wow, did I actually teach a JAG something????

Not at all. I'm not Amash's biggest fan, but he's not Muslim. He's outspokenly Eastern Orthodox. Middle Eastern or Arabic doesn't mean Muslim, especially in Michigan which has a large Christian Middle Eastern population. Amash is Palestinian Christian and Syrian Greek.
He's a Ron Paul guy.
LOL! Not just that, you taught an O6 something, and we all know how hard THAT is!
Amen!
