What is so hard to understand about that?
I heard the Civil War started because the South got fed up of being bossed around by the north, and slavery was only a part of it.
For example, before the war the north manned Fort Sumter with northern troops smack in the middle of the south's Charleston harbor, what cheek!

Like I said, Alex Haley was proven to have lied through his teeth when he wrote 'Roots'..
So we have to use our own logic to deduce that slaves weren't treated anywhere as bad as the propaganda makes out.
I mean, if a slave owner bought slaves for big bucks to work his land, the last thing he's going to do is mistreat them! Instead, he'll feed them, house them, clothe and medcare them to protect his investment and get years of work out of them..
