It's funny how some pro-blacks try to turn regular blacks against whites and everyone else just so they can keep control of a person's insight, ironically arguing the very thing they practice:
"Black Americans continued to hold slaves through the Civil War. In 1860, some 3,000 blacks owned nearly 20,000 black slaves. In South Carolina alone, more than 10,000 blacks were owned by black slaveholders. [See also "Black Slaveowners."]
Born a slave in 1790, William Ellison owned 63 slaves by 1860, making him one of Charleston's leading slaveholders. In the 1850 census for Charleston City, the port of Charleston, there were 68 black men and 123 black women who owned slaves. In Louisiana's St. Landry Parish, according to the 1860 census, black planter Auguste Donatto owned 70 slaves and farmed 500 acres of cotton fields.
Black slaveholders were the exception to the rule, but so, too, were white ones. Only a small minority of Southern whites owned slaves, little more than five percent of the white population if calculated by individual owner, or some 20 to 25 percent if all the members of the slaveowners' families are included. This means that 75 percent or more of Southerners neither owned slaves themselves nor were members of families who did."
Africans sold slaves to European slave traders, Europeans kidnapped Africans as slaves, Nearly everyone of upper class society owned a slave. Everyones to blame...slavery is wrong. I'm white and get blamed for slavery, yet my ancestors werent even here and were infact slave like peasants in Italy, I'm Italian and am part black because of it. Dont know what the last two points have to do with anything, but somewhere along the line blacks and whites are to blame for slavery, but every one is to blame for racism, so what now?

I not contesting the stats, I'm contesting his or her saying that basically more blacks owned slaves in the south than Whites did, you cocksmoker.
You're the one gurgling his/her semen just cause of physically posted stats you probably haven't even looked at yet, without even checking if they're valid, nutjobber.

Who denied it wasn't. My issued is with her false claim. And i love how you wanna pounce on me for saying one thing, yet I've been insulted on here everyday left and right with racial slurs and adhominem attacks, for speaking up and tactfully,until now, and now you pop up? w/e, man.

There was a cause. And you'd see mistakes and errors in my post cause you perceive it as anti-White, with you yourself being White.
You know, I wonder how easily you'd ban/censor me, again, in comparison to a fellow poster say from England, charged with the same offence, with how you finally came in here as fast as you did when i said an offensive remark.

There was absolutely no cause at all- you simply made a mistake, saying that the oroginal poster was claiming something, which you were incorrect to say.
People can see the mistakes not because of any ludicrous racial situation, but for one very simple reason- you were wrong. You contested, directly, a statement that was true, then tried to say the poster was saying something which was not being said at all. Hence- wrong.
Trying to turn this into an attack on me is laughable. You're no martyr, FOTN, just an overly aggressive poster who just broke the rules by flaming everyone.
This is now a warning. You can accept that, or you can keep arguing and make it a banning matter. Your call.

So you have a persecution complex. I thought so, but wasn't entirely sure until now.
Putting all these racial views out there as if you're unbiased and not racist, but all you were doing were waiting for any white person to say something so you could play the race card.
