Equal rights my ass.

They knew they wouldn't have made it without the south so had to compromise.

Colour me not shocker that you are moving the conversation off target to fit your needs.  

The conversation moved from your laughable "thought" that the slave owning founding fathers wanted to free the slaves to how they were treated for another 200 years after that.

You sent it off track, you didn't keep up.

Please try harder.
