That’s just it, if you actually study history you would know slavery in America was never fully accepted by most. Even the founding fathers, some of whom had slaves, struggled with it in their writings, knowing they were wrong, and knowing that something had to be done,
In fairness in areas dominated by the Catholic Church slaves had certain protections. They had to be treated humanely and were allowed to buy their way out of slavery. They often married into their master's family. To be sure that wasn't always the case. But in the what is now the U.S. slaves didn't have the same protections. Tended to treat slaves as not quite fully human.
Hence, the reason I said, it was unacceptable, but not any worse than other places around the world, even currently. Most of the founding fathers struggled with the issue of slavery outwardly and personally. The very phrase “all men are created equal” spelled the end of slavery before the first shot was fired.
You’re disgusting

What is in our constitution, and what is still practiced?

liberals defend capitalism. i dont defend capitalism.
Hmmm I don’t think that’s quite the same thing. But I would be willing to have a rational conversation with you about unnecessary laws or corrupt judicial system meant to put people in jail and prison.
Not according to god. How dare you.
Oops wrong thread. The Christian bashing is that way
You defend nothing because you're defenseless.

But I would be willing to have a rational conversation with you about unnecessary laws or corrupt judicial system meant to put people in jail and prison.
39% of Prisoners Should Not Be in Prison
According to a new study by the Brennan Center for Justicetime.com
Much of the prison system is overpopulated because of unnecessary laws and a complicated legal system, from people who you love. You love government you love laws. Of course some laws are necessary. And many of those prisoners deserve to be there.
About the only country currently that's comparable on a mass scale is China. Sex trafficking is definitely a huge problem but when you talk about enslaving and dehumanizing an entire race there aren't any countries at this time that systematically mistreated slaves quite like the U.S. did at one time.
