If "those slaves" were owed anything, then Lincoln screwed up, by not giving them a one way ticket back to Africa....

 
It pisses me off, to hear the whining pissing on my leg, plight of African ex-slaves....when our Native Americans, were the 1st Society (already here, happy, long before Europeans came to plunder, rape, and kill).....The 1st American Social Genocide by the American Govt....to abolish Native Americans; destroy their Bison food supply, (imagine doing this today, destroying the food supply of entire societies, cuz ya' want their land, and deem them as savages)....women, children, their only sin, being born  or pro-creation....!
Were all American's 1st & foremost, if born here; or legal immigrants. 
But while were on the subject: My own ancestry is of 3rd generation Candien American-Miq'mak Immigrants. My ancestors lived in Quebec, my others fled to Acadia in lower Luzianna, with the choice of being be-headed by the British, or leaving lands they owned & had for generations, long before the Brits arrived in Canada.
I want Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Newfoundland, AND, the northern half of Maine, a fully forested reservation of my own, with a full blown Hockey Rink on it, my own NHL team too, which I will stock with some of the world's most extreme fighters til death, the Miq-mak Indians....
few know in Canada, if your a Native North American Indian, you will be treated worse than blacks are in America. You will be dishonored, disowned, disliked, regardless. And, some ex-slave relations think they have it bad. They can go wipe their ass with a Canadien Icicle....or shove it up their asses....
anyone recall the Montreal Olympics of the early 70s, when host homes, could NOT be found for any North American Indian, albeit US or Canadien Injuns...? I do....!
As for ex-black slave relative whiners- Take that 1 way ticket back home, and quit complaining...!
Oh-and I want to eat Lobster daily....!
