Of course they can’t blame all of their ills on this. My thought was why do we feel it is ok to do this still?

one of the issues was spending, the south was being forced to cover expansion in the west and had no desire, just one of the many issues with the states at the time....
just like ww2 was about Jews... correct? when the US picks up 6 million blacks in about 5 years and gases them well... maybe the bothers might have a case.... right?
you are completely imagining stuff.. and I don't mind. you can live in any fantasy world you should chose. however you are not welcome to accuse me of what you imagine... get it asshole?
pls show me where I stated that it's okay to have slaves. seriously and no joke at all... assholes like you with big imaginations are wearing me out and causing endless amounts of social problems.
-- here is a space I saved for you to tell me how ALL blacks people issues are caused by the WHITE MAN.. tear it up homey..... like the teams of white ninja assassins sneaking around the ghetto (a word invented to describe Jews slums BTW) at night killing young bothers and the dumb fuck press blames the black guys...
there is little truth about slavery available... white Irish slavery has been denied and called fake. not politically correct
The Irish slave trade across the Atlantic had two main phases. The first occurred during the years 1641-1651. In 1641, Irish Catholic landowners attempted to overthrow the English-dominated government and restore the rights of Catholics. The rebellion failed, and as a result England cracked down hard on Irish rights. In 1641, Ireland had population of around 1.4 million people. By 1652, that population was down to around 600,000. Many people were killed by English troops or died of starvation, but tens of thousands were also forcibly removed and sold as slaves, not servants, to British plantations in the Caribbean and the Americas.
The Irish rebellion in 1641 was met with violent suppression
The second major period of slavery followed shortly afterwards and lasted from around 1652 to 1660. This time, the focus of Irish enslavement was not prisoners or former rebels who had fought British rule, but rather was children. After a decade of brutal treatment, Ireland was full of orphans. Over several years roughly 100,000 orphaned children were transported to the British colonies. At the same time, an additional 20,000-30,000 Irish adults were arrested and sold into slavery. In fact, so many Irish were enslaved that in many Caribbean colonies, like Barbados, they constituted the largest ethnic group, outnumbering both free English persons and African slaves.
