OH THE HUMANITY...!!!
Please at least skim read through this poor guy's examples of the horrible "White Privilege" and "Systemic Racism" that he has had to bravely endure during his lifetime. Please note that he didn't include ALL the horrible, life altering examples, he just hand picked the most awful ones.
The White People that died during the Civil War to help gain his freedom have NOTHING to complain about compared to the horrors that this poor guy has to SPILL HIS GUTS ABOUT...

Sounds like somebody needs to go live in China or Japan for 10 years to see how the other half lives.

I do have to say something about your "White people who died during the Civil War" comment. Those soldiers didn't die for the slaves. Probably very few of those soldiers even gave a shit about them.

Soldiers fight wars mainly because it's what they're paid to do. When I was in the Gulf War we knew we were there for economic reasons (the oil) and that the safety of the Kuwaiti and Saudi Arabian people was just window dressing.

Just about every American war has been like that, even the European theater of WW2. I'd bet most of those guys wondered what the hell they were even doing there. Even in the Pacific theater guys were probably motivated at first but grew sick to death of it.

But getting back to the Civil War, the only sacrifices made were to keep the Union together and even that wasn't in the hearts of Union soldiers, nor was freeing the slaves. Blacks don't owe them anything.

David, you are correct, at first. At the beginning of the War, soldiers for the North fought for Union. Lincoln was losing and troops were going home. Gettysberg, and his Address changed things. Refocused the War to freeing the slaves. So basically you had an attitude change in the north. Most didn't like blacks, but they understood they were human by 1864. Many, like Robert Gould Shaw, fought for the right for the slaves to be free. Perhaps a little more than 50%.

[DavidGee24]

Civilians maybe, but not soldiers. Even Union soldiers came from places where blacks were not considered equals and freeing them was not a motivator. No matter what Lincoln said, by that point all the soldiers wanted was for the war to end. They're not charging and yelling "FOR THE SLAVES!" nor even "FOR THE UNION!" They just wanted to end the thing and go home. The romanticized version sounds great and no doubt many were patriots, but that's just not how the American soldier is wired.

I KNEW someone would make a point about this. You could say the same thing about most of the enlisted troops who fought in any war.
The fact still remains that White Americans are the only people in the history of mankind to have fought and died [by the 1000s] in an effort to free African slaves.
Using your logic, nobody we ever sent troops to die for during any war owes us anything.

You mean like I said in all four paragraphs, virtually word for word? That has got to be the weirdest rebuttal I've ever read. I don't even know what to call that, perhaps a Polly argument? You know, where you repeat what I said and then there's an awkward pause before someone says, "Sooooo...you agree?"

Except that Americans weren't enslaving Europeans and Asians before World War 2. I never said those particular people shouldn't be grateful, that's what the Straw Man told you. And LOL at you and your retarded belief that black people should be thankful for being enslaved and then freed.

Now go find your ass, hopefully I didn't kick it too far.

All you've managed to kick around is your ridiculous argument that Blacks have no reason to be thankful to the Whites that fought and died to free them.

Anybody see how the interest with nightly riots has calmed down since somebody noticed that these riots were only helping Trump in the polls? So we shift to fires and "Climate Change" so as not to help out Trump. Interesting, but not totally unexpected. Then too, the MSM isn't reporting that Peace is breaking out in the Middle East.

Not much reporting on the fact the Islamic terrorist attacks have completely ceased to exist either. Maybe the "anti Muslim" travel ban actually worked.
