    It was illegal to have a revolution against the British Empire and create the United States. Legalists are some of the dumbest people on the entire planet of earth.

        It reminds me of that old kid’s book about the goose who decided they were smart because they owned a book, and didn’t even think of reading the book until they got hurt after making some very confident and obviously false statements.

    Even when chattel slavery was illegal, they didn’t stop doing it. Check out my last post. The slaveowners are probably still alive. John Brown is needed now more than ever.

      The Clintons Had Slaves

      Clinton was, however, generous enough to allow inmates from Arkansas prisons to work as unpaid servants in the Governor’s Mansion. In It Takes a Village, Hillary Clinton writes that the residence was staffed with “African-American men in their thirties,” since “using prison labor at the governor’s mansion was a longstanding tradition, which kept down costs.” It is unclear just how longstanding the tradition of having chained black laborers brought to work as maids and gardeners had been. But one has no doubt that as the white residents of a mansion staffed with unpaid blacks, the Clintons were continuing a certain historic Southern practice. (Hillary Clinton did note, however, that she and Bill were sure not to show undue lenience to the sla…servants, writing that “[w]e enforced rules strictly and sent back to prison any inmate who broke a rule.”

      ~ It Takes a Village, Hillary Clinton, 1995

    “At the time the industrial extermination of Jews, Slavs, Roma homosexuals, and the disabled was legal, so no… and it’s illegal to kill people so… No. The Allies were not right.”

    I bet they’d be singing a very different tune if it was a question of breaking the laws of a communist government

    John Brown did some things wrong (in terms of tactics).
