I acknowledged absolutely everything in my comment jackass. I acknowledge that Ben Franklin own slaves. I acknowledged that it is morally reprehensible for anyone to own slaves at any point in time.
He owned slaves during a time when slavery was legal and socially accepted. Later in life, he recognized how morally wrong it was and worked to correct that mistake. That is what redemption is.
You’re fixating on the fact that he once owned slaves as though it’s the only fact that matters. As I said before, that’s why you’re being an idiot.
And once again, I don’t have to acknowledge established facts that weren’t even the subject of the discussion.
You’re the one who brought it up after I quoted him, as if that alone completely discredits the quote.
Here’s a comparison. Did you know that Barack Obama authorized more drone strikes than his predecessors and oversaw military operations that killed thousands of people in the Middle East? Did you know his administration also deported record numbers of people? He even received the Nobel Peace Prize despite those actions. Does that automatically make him a bad person? Obama is widely regarded as one of the most consequential presidents of the modern era, yet his record includes decisions that cost many lives. Do we therefore dismiss everything he ever said or did?
But he did something we know think is wrong! So he is evil!
This is live on easy mode. Imagine living like that.

Now you’re just deflecting. So does Obama have blood on in his hands or not? Or is the only qualification slave ownership?
Honestly, you’re too easy. I’m going to bow out real quick. You have a good one. Make sure to wear a helmet when you go outside.
