I would have loved to be part of that riot at that time if this is true.

There you are. Don't get my thread whacked or yourself banned. I am interested in opinions of my white southern peers b/c I'm pretty sure I was a minority when I felt some degree of shame reading that article my friend posted.

I try to be very rational and logical about all things in our colorful history. I even see the business and practical needs of forced labor in a time of early development of such a HUGE land mass. And I agree that many freed slaves after Emancipation were treated worse than during slavery. But this baseless(dropped charges) shite right here is downright sad. You don't have to feel guilt but who can argue that this was anything but a unilateral terrorist attack?
