unbelievable. looks like ALL history is going to be erased as it's seems to be easier to see the bad than see the good. If people actually researched the history of slavery then they would see African people actually rowing their boats full of slaves to sell them as a commodity to anyone who passes by.

Very true roman... :g38: we can't change the past just make sure the wrongs don't happen again and it's even worse trying to eradicate it. Everyone knows the Roman empire was totally immersed in slavery, after all what was Spartacus! Next they be after Hadrians wall... :g43: and how about the Saxons I'm sure there's references to slaves in the doomsday book...as i said the world turn upside down... :g58:
