[QUOTE="728ups, post: 1347027, member: 33372"] Again,you are manipulating ideas and trying to re write history to fit the agenda of the Gun Carrying Right when the facts are far far different. The slave traders didnt encounter armed opposition because slavery was a very old time honored tradition that was very profitable. Records exist that The Muslims started buying slaves from Africa as early as 869,( read The Slave Trade and The Making of New World Slavery for more on this subject. i have both on my kindle and they are excellent reads) When the whites started trading for slaves the slaves werent taken by force. On the contrary The African Kings gladly traded their subjects for goods from Europe. On a side note selling people into slavery was outlawed in Europe by the 1400's( i'm pulling this fact off the top of my head,may have been the 1500's) ,but was happily practiced in Africa,and this is why slaves in Europe and it's colonies were all black. It wasnt a racial practice,rather this was the only supply to meet the demand Had the slave traders gone in shooting, the supply would have dissapeared<poof> [/QUOTE]
