YB,

I understand your point, but no, for now I won't ban the subject.

As for your other point, I'm aware liberty is a new member. But no one should expect to join a discussion board and as a first post state that slaves didn't desrve liberty because they had never experienced it. And I would point out that, the way I read it anyway, he wasn't saying "according to 19th-century" standards - it certainly sounded as if he was saying that he believed that now - in the 21st century. That to me is disturbing. My point is that if you join for the sole purpose of being controversial, don't expect to be treated with kid's gloves.

Thanks for your input.
