I'll tell you the same thing I tell my white power friends who talk about how many white slaves there were in the colonies because indentured servitude is the same a chattel slavery.  .  .  

"BULLSHIT!"

It is ridiculous to claim it is not appropriate to celebrate the end of innocent people being bought and sold like animals just because we continue to punish convicted criminals.  I think it is highly offensive to lump the innocent people who endured chattel slavery into the same group with convicted criminals being punished for a crime.
