any time these two issues come up i always like to throw my 2 cents in.
what ticks me off about this is that the same white bitch ass mothafuckers had great grandparents that treated their black slaves like this. Apparently this is a bigger concern than all the child abuse, rape, sexual harassment, daily abuse, and strife HUMANS in america.
first of all, every single race has been enslaved.. christians and jews were enslaved far longer than blacks as far as i know, and that indicates white slavery.. but beyond that, you have to realize that THE NATIVE PEOPLE OF AFRICA actually sold slaves to england/usa.. their own race was selling their people out, and you know what, it still goes on to this day.. slavery is rampant in africa, and at this point, it's entirely black people enslaving blacks.. ie in diamond mines/labor camps.. beyond that, the genocide that occurs with black on black violence is far more than anything the rest of the world does currently.. rwanda, darfur, etc..
Lets not forget that this oh so wonderful country was built on the mass murder of so many native americans, the abuse of many africans.
that was tragic but that's how command & conquer works.. humans are violent creatures.. in rwanda's genocide of 1994, 1,000,000 people died compared to 10,000,000 native americans from 1492-18xx, and alot of those deaths count disease brought over from england/europe into the totals.. that's major if you think about it.
you can't forget that usa was divided, among the north and the south.. the usa today is the one that abolished slavery under the victory of abraham lincoln. So the usa of today is actually not to "blame" for slavery in my opinion, sure there still remains the ignorant idiots who survived the civil war in the south, but they were defeated, let's not forget that.
this country was not built on the backs of slavery, that is only a very small element of agriculture and "housekeeping".. it's not like they "enslaved people" to come up with the idea to build planes and cars.. had black people been free to do so during the period of slavery, they might have been able to come up with those ideas.. they sure did contribute later on after slavery was abolished, that is for sure.
anyway, mass murder of native americans is nothing on the scale of history.. genocide has occurred throughout history and continues until this day.. here's a quick search on google:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genocides_in_historythe death tolls during wars from WWII and prior, are astounding... millions and millions of people, even more so
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wars_and_anthropogenic_disasters_by_death_tollhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_battles_by_casualtiesanyway, the chinese probably have the highest death tolls from genocide than anyone else.
Lets the aftermath of that.... there is many 1% of the native americans here today and they are on small ass reservations.
that's not ONLY the fault of the USA... sure it was disgusting that usa's armies went and wiped them out.. but it was also completely idiotic of them to try and fight people who have guns, canons, etc, with bows and arrows.. surely they had some successes, but overall they were demolished.. the native americans might have had no choice other than to fight, but perhaps they could have given up their land knowing full well they would be massacred if they didn't.. however, they chose to fight, and that's the story.
Those africans are now minorities and have fought for hundreds of years to get equal rights with whites, and no matter what people say OBAMA isn't black. He wasn't raised in that culture. He was not raised by a black family. He is pretty much a white man whose white mother got jungle fever.
of course obama isn't BLACK, he's half white half black..
don't get the point there.
i am not condoning this kind of treatment at all, but HONESTLY the whole peta shit is annoying. i saw this on gilbert arenas;s twitter."Sum lady just told me she was a VEGAN.. whaaaa I was confused becuz she had on a gucci belt and matchn purse"u don't eat cow but u wear IT"
right fuck peta, but protect against animal cruelty.
