It would be pointless to do so, it's obvious hyperbole (as was the comment about capitalism requiring chattel slavery to work). Wall street was already a commodities market when the ordinance was passed that made it the official slave market of the city.
Quote:1711. Law Appointing a Place for the More Convenient Hiring of Slaves Source: Minutes of the Common Council of the City of New York, vol. II, 458, December 13 , 1711. Be it Ordained by the Mayor Recorder Aldermen and Assistants of the City of New York Convened in Common Council and it is hereby Ordained by the Authority of the same That all Negro and Indian slaves that are lett out to hire within this City do take up their Standing in Order to be hired at the Markett house at the Wall Street Slip untill Such time as they are hired, whereby all Persons may Know where to hire slaves as their Occasions Shall require and also Masters discover when their Slaves are so hired and all the Inhabitants of this City are to take Notice hereof Accordingly.

There is a spam filter in the atheist forum they call the Atheist Forum
And it's been the ruin of many a poor thread . . . .
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

It didn't ruin this thread.
It had a pre-existing condition.

Black (peoples) history ?
Please tell me more about it, Fred. I'm seriously interested. I'm a history of capitalism kinda companion and I'm not gonna start that one, because I'm not an expert in that field. But I totally hope that someone might show up and tell us, you and me, what the two, the history of slavery and the history of captialism, might have in common.
Know what I mean?
And no, I'm not into race-issues. I just wanna know what happend to truth-beauty-goodness along the way.

Fred is a fatty. His language and his sources might me questionable, but he has his heart on the right side. At least I wish he has.
But who am I anyway.
Fred is a real dude. No doubt about it. It takes some cochones to shout out loud the stuff he did around here.
