Republicans push for an amendment that would ban abortion; even if the woman is raped

In the history of the United States, slavery was perpertated by white males. It was before females had voting rights.

Fictional accounts of how slaves were regarded is not reality. I'm from Alabama. I can take to to a farm which was a breeding facility for slaves. Yep....treated just like horses. Auctioned. Looked in the mouth. Forced to breed.

Some slave owners were more progressive, but generally blacks were considered to be no better or more intelligent than a beast. Infact, the bank I work for has a building where slaves were held as collateral on loans. Treated as I treat cattle today.

What happens in the world today is irrelevant when the comparison was that blacks in this country were once not considered to be people. They actually were only considered 3/4 of a person in states which needed a boost in population to gain congressional seats.
